title: [Molecular biology and gene engineering of phytase].
abstract: Phytase is a new-style enzyme used in monogastric animal feed. The addition of phytase to feed can increase phosphorus availability, decrease environmental phosphorus pollution and improve the performance of animal. This paper reviews the research progress and trend in recent studies related to molecular biology and gene engineering of phytase.
