A diphytanyl ether analog of phosphatidylserine from a methanogenic bacterium, Methanobrevibacter arboriphilus.

Several ninhydrin-positive lipids were found in methanogenic bacteria and the structure of one of them, designated as PNL2 from Methanobrevibacter arboriphilus, was identified as a diphytanyl ether analog of phosphatidylserine. The chromatographic behavior of the lipid on thin-layer plates and on a...
