Application:	Iron Fortification of Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) to Address Iron Deficiency.: This research explores the use of phytic acid sodium salt hydrate in iron fortification processes for lentils, addressing iron deficiency in human nutrition and enhancing the nutritional value of lentil-based diets (Podder et al., 2017 ).
Biochem/physiol Actions:	Phytic acid is present in all eukaryotic cells. In plants, it is known to function as a [PO₄]³⁻ storage depot and precursor for other inositol phosphates and pyrophosphates. Its high surface negative charge makes it a potent chelator of divalent and trivalent cations in vitro, and it is most likely associated with Ca²⁺ or Mg²⁺ ions in vivo. In yeast, phytic acid acts with the nuclear pore protein Gle1 to regulate the nuclear export of mRNA by coactivating the RNA-dependent ATPase activity of DExD-box protein 5 (Dbp5).
