A high phytase-producing strain of Aspergillus niger N-3 was identified by screening 104 microbial strains. The gene for A. niger N-3 was cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris. The coding region without the introns and putative signal sequence was comprised of 1347 nucleotides. It encoded a polypeptide of 448 amino acids, exhibiting high amino acid sequence homologies (94.87
