The enzyme 4-phytase (EC 3.1.3.26) catalyzes the following reaction: [1]

myo-inositol hexakisphosphate + H2O 1D-myo-inositol 1,2,3,5,6-pentakisphosphate + phosphate

myo-Inositol hexakisphosphate is also known as phytic acid.

These enzymes belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is myo-inositol-hexakisphosphate 4-phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include 6-phytase (name based on 1L-numbering system and not 1D-numbering) and phytate 6-phosphatase.

Enzymes of this type participate in inositol phosphate metabolism.

Phytic acid is a six-fold dihydrogenphosphate ester of inositol, also called inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) or inositol polyphosphate. At physiological pH, the phosphates are partially ionized, resulting in the phytate anion.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Phytase</span> Class of enzymes

A phytase is any type of phosphatase enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of phytic acid – an indigestible, organic form of phosphorus that is found in many plant tissues, especially in grains and oil seeds – and releases a usable form of inorganic phosphorus. While phytases have been found to occur in animals, plants, fungi and bacteria, phytases have been most commonly detected and characterized from fungi.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Beta-propeller phytase</span> Group of enzymes

β-propeller phytases (BPPs) are a group of enzymes (i.e. protein superfamily) with a round beta-propeller structure. BPPs are phytases, which means that they are able to remove (hydrolyze) phosphate groups from phytic acid and its phytate salts. Hydrolysis happens stepwise and usually ends in myo-inositol triphosphate product which has three phosphate groups still bound to it. The actual substrate of BPPs is calcium phytate and in order to hydrolyze it, BPPs must have Ca2+ ions bound to themselves. BPPs are the most widely found phytase superfamily in the environment and they are thought to have a major role in phytate-phosphorus cycling in soil and water. As their alternative name alkaline phytase suggests, BPPs work best in basic (or neutral) environment. Their pH optima is 6–9, which is unique among the phytases.
