What is it about?

Phytases are used for feeding monogastric animals, because they hydrolyze phytic acid generating inorganic phosphate. Aspergillus niger 3-phytase A and 3-phytase B were characterized using bioinformatic tools

Why is it important?

The computational characterization of the two phytases produced by A. niger, 3-phytase A and 3-phytase B, made it possible to establish that both phytases belong to the histidine acid phosphatases class, with the active ligand binding site (RHGXRXP-HD) highly conserved
