Phytases are phosphohydrolytic enzymes that initiate stepwise removal of phosphate from phytate. Simple-stomached species such as swine, poultry, and fish require extrinsic phytase to digest phytate, the major form of phosphorus in plant-based feeds.

Despite yeast having its own native phytase, the high levels of phytate found in DDGS, a byproduct of ethanol (ETOH) fermentation, suggest that its activity is diminished in the presence of ETOH. Ethanol, a product of grain fermentation, is known to

The role of disulfide bridges in the folding of Aspergillus niger phytase pH 2.5-optimum (PhyB) was investigated using dynamic light scattering (DLS). Guanidinium chloride (GuCl) at 1.0 M unfolded phytase; however, its removal by dialysis refolded th

Although it has been widely used as a feed supplement to reduce manure phosphorus pollution of swine and poultry, Aspergillus niger PhyA phytase is unable to withstand heat inactivation during feed pelleting. Crystal structure comparisons with its cl

The phyA gene from Aspergillus ficuum that codes for a 441-amino-acid full-length phosphomonoesterase (phytase) was cloned and expressed in Medicago sativa (alfalfa) leaves. The expressed enzyme from alfalfa leaves was purified to homogeneity and bio

Aspergillus fumigatus phytase is a heat-stable enzyme of great potential. Our objective was to determine if a high level of functional expression of the A. fumigatus phytase gene could be produced in Pichia pastoris and how the recombinant phytase re

The gene (phyA) for the Aspergillus niger phytase with optima at pH 5.5 and 2.2 was expressed in Escherichia coli under the control of the T7lac promoter. A 56 kDa fusion protein comprised of phytase linked to an S-Tag leader peptide accumulated in i

The function of disulfide bonds in Aspergillus ficuum phytase was elucidated by unfolding studies, using guanidinium hydrochloride (Gu.HCl) as denaturant. Although the enzyme is totally inactivated by 0.8 M Gu.HCl, at pH 5.0, the active conformation

Southern blots of DNA from a number of aspergilli belonging to Aspergillus section Flavi, including aflatoxin-producing and non-aflatoxigenic isolates of A. flavus and A. parasiticus, were probed with the aflatoxin pathway genes aflR and omt-1. DNA o

We have used the Aspergillus niger (An) aphA gene as a probe and cloned the A. ficuum (Af) SRRC 265 gene encoding an extracellular pH 6.0-optimum acid phosphatase (APase6) from a genomic library. The identity of the Af aphA gene was confirmed and its
