Identification of plasmalogens in Bifidobacterium longum, but not in Bifidobacterium animalis [PDF]
AbstractPlasmalogens are glycerophospholipids that contain a vinyl ether bond at the sn-1 position of glycerol backbone instead of an ester bond. Plasmalogens are indicated to have many important functions in mammalian cells. On the other hand, it is suggested that some gut microbiota plays many probiotic functions to human health.
