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.
