Investigation of the action of highly purified Clostridium perfringens sialidase on ganglioside II3Neu5Ac-Gg4Cer and its oligosaccharide II3Neu5Ac-Gg4, in the presence and absence of sodium cholate, extend earlier results obtained with impure enzyme fractions. Sialidase labeled with 125I was found to bind to various ganglioside substrate micelles, including II3Neu5Ac-Gg4Cer, and to mixed ganglioside-sodium cholate micelles. No binding occurred between the enzyme and the ganglioside-derived oligosaccharide II3Neu5Ac-Gg4, even when radioactive II3Neu5Ac-Gg4-[3H]ol was used. The binding of sialidase to micellar substrate is a condition for enzymic hydrolysis. Correspondingly, II3Neu5Ac-Gg4Cer and II3Neu5Ac-Gg4Cer-sodium cholate micelles were hydrolyzed by the enzyme but II3Neu5Ac-Gg4 was not. Ganglioside oligosaccharide analogues containing an amino function at the reducing terminus or between two oligosaccharide chains, II3Neu5Ac-Gg4-NH2 and (II3Neu5Ac-Gg4)2NH, were hydrolyzed in the absence of cholate. A synthetic analogue of II3Neu5Ac-Gg4Cer containing only the fatty acid moiety and not the sphingosine residue (I1-deoxy-I1-stearamido-II3-monosialo-gangliotetraitol ) behaved as the ganglioside in the presence and absence of sodium cholate.
