C16 Ganglioside GM1 (d18:1/16:0) (ammonium)

C16 Ganglioside GM1 (d18:1/16:0) (C16-GM1) ammonium is a member of the ganglioside family containing saturated C16:0 acyl chains. C16 Ganglioside GM1 (d18:1/16:0) ammonium serves as a functional receptor for Cholera toxin (HY-P1446) B subunit, while showing reduced efficiency in both transcytosis and retrograde pathways. C16 Ganglioside GM1 (d18:1/16:0) ammonium can be used for diarrheal diseases research[1].
