Proteins are digested by proteasees (enzymes) in the digestive system. Trypsin, peps, chymotrypsis are the proteases of stomach that start digesting proteins in to peptides. Enteropeptidases further digest them to small peptides and finally amino acids.

∙ 6y agoProtein digestion (by enzymes called proteases) begins in the stomach, where pepsin breaks down some proteins into polypeptides. The undigested proteins that enter the small intestines are digested by trypsin (another enzyme) into polypeptides. Trypsin is produced as inactive trypsinogen in the pancreatic juice and is converted to active trypsin by intestinal enterokinase in the intestine. The polypeptides produced are further digested to amino acids by erepsin in the intestinal juice. The end products of protein digestion are amino acids which can be absorbed.

In which sections of the digestive system are proteins digested?
it is digested to your muscles.
What do proteins get digested into?
Amino acids
What are digested proteins called?
Proteins are obtained from nutrients of food. They starts to digest in stomach by proteases such as pepsin, trypsin in to peptides. These small peptides later digested further to form amino acids after complete digestion.

The body breaks digested proteins into amino acids
What food types are digested in the stomach?
Proteins

Amino acids.
What simpler substances are proteins digested in to?
Pepsin
