Yes.
Protein broken down to peptides in stomach. Proteases such as pepsin, trypsin catalyze the breaking down of proteins to peptides. enteropeptidases cut down these peptides to amino acids. All the proteins and enzymes are coded in Genomic DNA.

Enzyme that breaks down proteins and peptides
They are made as peptides on ribosomes. Later they become other proteins incytoplasm
Proteins and peptides
Yes, pepsin is an enzyme in the stomach that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids.
Pepsin helps break down proteins into smaller peptides in the stomach.
Proteins are broken down into peptides through a process called proteolysis, which involves the action of enzymes known as proteases. These enzymes cleave the peptide bonds between amino acids in proteins, resulting in shorter chains called peptides. Peptides can further be broken down into individual amino acids by exopeptidases and other peptidases. This process is crucial for digestion and the regulation of biological functions, as peptides often serve as signaling molecules in various physiological pathways.
The substrate for peptidase are peptides, which are basically small proteins.
Proteins are made up of one or more peptides.
The enzyme that digests proteins into peptides is called protease.
No. Sugars are carbohydrates.
