The molecular species of glycerides and phospholipids of the yeast Lipomyces starkeyi IFO 0678 harvested at 60 hr, corresponding to the late exponential phase, were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.The major triglyceride was C16:0-C18:1-C18:1-The major molecular species of phospholipid were 1-C16:0-2-C18:1 and 1-C18:1-2-C18:2.Al though phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were composed of several kinds of molecular species, 1-C16:1-2-C18:1, 1-C18:1-2-C18:2 and 1-C16:0-2-C18:1, phosphatidyl serine was composed of almost exclusively 1-C16:0-2-C18:1.The lipid and the fatty acid compositions of the yeast harvested at the different growth phases were also investigated.
