Molecular and catalytic properties of phytate-degrading enzymes (phytases)

2002-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Phytate-degrading enzymes catalyse the step-wise release of phosphate from phytate, the principle storage form of phosphorus in plant seeds and pollen. They are widespread in nature, occurring in plants and micro-organisms, as well as in some animal tissues. Phytate-degrading enzymes have been studied intensively in recent years because of the great interest in such enzymes for reducing phytate content in animal f...
