35960-33-9 Usage
Description
Ganglioside GM2 asialo (asialo- GM2) is a glycosphingolipid containing three monosaccharide residues and a fatty acid of variable chain length but lacking the sialic acid residue present on ganglioside M2. Asialo-GM2 levels are low-to-undetectable in normal human brain, but it accumulates in the brain of patients with Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff disease, which are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by deficiency of lysosomal β-hexosaminidase A and B, respectively. It also binds to various bacteria, including Pseudomonas isolates derived from cystic fibrosis patients. Asialo-GM2 mixture contains ganglioside GM2 asialo molecular species with fatty acyl chains of variable lengths. [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1512]

Biochem/physiol Actions
Degraded form of Asialoganglioside-GM1 ganglioside.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 35960-33-9 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 3,5,9,6 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 3 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 35960-33:
(7*3)+(6*5)+(5*9)+(4*6)+(3*0)+(2*3)+(1*3)=129
129 % 10 = 9
So 35960-33-9 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
