A ganglioside present in abnormally large amounts in the brain and liver due to a deficient biosynthetic enzyme, G(M3):UDP-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase. Deficiency of this enzyme prevents the formation of G(M2) ganglioside from G(M3) ganglioside and is the cause of an anabolic sphingolipidosis.
Synonyms: 0 G(M3) Ganglioside Sialyllactosylceramide Lactosylceramide, Sialyl Sialyl Lactosylceramide II3NeuAcLacCer Ganglioside GM3 GM3, Ganglioside Hematoside
