Phytic acid potassium (Inositol polyphosphate dipotassium salt) exists 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. It can be used clinically as a complexing agent for removal of traces of heavy metal ions. It acts also as a hypocalcemic agent. Phytic acid is a strong chelator of important minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. 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).
