GT3 oligosaccharide (free acid) is a disaccharide (Galβ1,4Glc) with three sialic acid residues (NeuAc) linked α2,8/α2,8/α2,3 to the galactose residue (Ledeen, 2009). The GT3 ganglioside is the carbohydrate moiety in the GT3 ganglioside, which is implicated in type 1 diabetes. GT3 ganglioside is expressed on pancreatic cells and is the target antigen of anti-GM3-antibodies, which contribute to the autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells (Misasi, 1997). GT3 ganglioside is also abundant in lung tissues and the nervous system.
