The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of gangliosides that begins with the synthesis of a tetrasaccharide core Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc-beta-1,4-Gal-beta-1,4-Glc-ceramide. This core can be further elongated with the sequential addition of various carbohydrate units including the addition of one or more sialic acid residues. [PMID:35536927]
