MATERIALS AND METHODS Enzymes-Bovine milk galactosyltransferase and Clos tridium
perfringens sialidase was purchased from Sigma (St. Louis, Mo., USA). Glycolipids-nLc4Cer
was prepared from NeuGcƒ¿ 2-3nLc4Cer obtained from bovine erythrocytes by mild acid
hydrolysis with 1.0 N formic acid at 100 C for 1 h (18). Lc3Cer was prepared from nLc4Cer
by periodate oxidation followed by reduction and mild acid hydrolysis according to the
method of Spiro(19). NeuAca2-3nLc4Cer, NeuAcƒ¿ 2-3nLc6Cer, and NeuAc2-I were …

NeuAca2-3nLc4Cer, NeuAcƒ¿ 2-3nLc6Cer, and NeuAc2-I were prepared from human pla centa as described in a previous paper(20). NeuAcƒ¿ 2-6nLc4Cer was prepared from human meconium(21). Antibodies Monoclonal antibody, H-11 was prepared as described in a previous paper (17). The monoclonal anti body recognizes the GaiƒÀ1-4GlcNAcƒÀ structure of glyco lipids.
