Understanding thermostability factors of Aspergillus niger PhyA phytase: a molecular dynamics study

Abstract Molecular dynamics simulation was used to study the dynamic differences between native Aspergillus niger PhyA phytase and a mutant with 20 % greater thermostability. Atomic root mean square deviation, radius of gyration, and number of hydrogen bonds and salt bridges are examined to det...
