Abstract

AbstractGangliosides are known to exist as monomers in organic solvents and to aggregate in aqueous systems with the formation of high molecular weight micelles. It is shown here that the ganglioside micelles can be rendered visible by incorporation of a lipophilic dye and analyzed by conventional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Mixed micelles of gangliosides and commonly used detergents as well as interaction products of ganglioside micelles with albumin were thus visualized by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis for the first time.
