Phytase Usage And Synthesis
| Description | Phytases are phosphatases able to hydrolyze O–P bonds in phytic acid liberatinginorganic phosphate. Phytases can be grouped according to the attack on thehexaphosphoric ester into 3-phytase (myo-inositol-hexakisphosphate 3-phosphohydrolase,EC 3.1.3.8) as well as 4-phytase (myo-inositol-hexakisphosphate 4-phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.26), releasing the phosphate at the correspondingposition at the inositol ring. Phytic acid is used by plants to store different type of anions (Cu2+, Fe2+/3+,Ca2+, Mg2+, etc.). The resulting salts are known as phytates. Nonruminant animalsdo not have the enzymatic ability to hydrolyze phytates; therefore, phosphate andminerals are not absorbed, but rather they pass through the intestinal tract undigested.The addition of phytases to food and feed does therefore enhance theavailability of phosphate and minerals bound in phytates.More than 20 years ago, the first commercial phytase product for feed, Natuphos,was released. Nowadays, several other phytase products are available onthe market for the improvement of animal feed, such as Ronozyme from Novozymesand Finase from AB Enzymes. The range of applications in nonruminant feed is large, as discussed in several reviews on the usage of phytases in the fodderof pigs, poultry, and fish. Additionally, phytase might also beused in food for the improvement of the nutritional value of cereal food productsby degrading phytate. Commercial recombinant production of phytases occurs generally, if notexclusively, in ascomycetes, whereas the phytase genes originate fromdifferent phyla: bacteria, ascomycetes, and basidiomycetes (Peniophora lycii).Industrial production takes place in liquid media in stirred bioreactors on a6 9 120 m3 scale. In addition, the cultivation of phytase producing filamentousfungi in solid-state or solid-substrate fermentation systems has also beenstudied, but it lacks industrial adaptability. Another opportunity for the productionof phytases is the usage of transgenic plants, such as maize, rice, soybean, andwheat. |
| Uses | Phytase, from Aspergillus niger degrades phytic acid into inositol and phosphate. Phytase, from Aspergillus niger phytase treatment can minimize the anti-nutritional effect of phytic acid[1]. |
