General Information
Term ganglioside biosynthetic process ID (Ontology) GO:0001574 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of gangliosides that begins with the synthesis of a tetrasaccharide core Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc-beta-1,4-Gal-beta-1,4-Glc-ceramide. This core can be further elongated with the sequential addition of various carbohydrate units including the addition of one or more sialic acid residues.[ PubMed:35536927 ]
Also Known As "ganglio-series glycosphingolipid biosynthesis" ; "ganglioside anabolism" ; "ganglioside biosynthesis" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
