Protease is an enzyme. It is essentially a protein. Protease is not a compound and therefore its formula cannot be given out. Protease are a class of enzymes involved in digesting proteins. The basic mode of action can be described as: Protein + Protease -----> Digested protein + protease Since enzymes do not react in a biochemical reaction (they are merely catalysis), protease appears on both sides of the reaction shown above

Protease breaks down Protein into amino acids

No, there is a great difference between lipaseand protease.

lipase: digest fats and oils into glycerol and fatty acids.

protease: digest protein into amino acids.

The protease enzyme helps in the breakdown of proteins present in a cell

Protease enzme came from a human.
