Patent ID: 10030256

Abstract:
A method for producing lysophosphatidylethanolamine 18:1 includes extracting phospholipids including mainly phosphatidylethanolamine from a microorganism of Pseudomonas sp. and treating the extracted phospholipids with phospholipase A2. An alternative method for producing lysophosphatidylethanolamine 18:1 includes treating a microorganism of Pseudomonas sp. directly with phospholipase A2. The lysophosphatidylethanolamine 18:1 can be used as a plant vaccine material for preventing the plants from injuries caused by pathogen infections and/or environmental stresses and accelerating the recovery of plants injured by pathogen infections and/or environmental stresses, and can also be used as a composition for enhancing fruit ripening (color and sweetness) and storage properties, and as it can be used for an application in plant tissues, food products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and agricultural use, it would be very advantageously used in related industries. This invention also provides a method of producing a phosphatidylethanolamine itself from a microorganism of Pseudomonas sp.
