The carbohydrate molecule should not get fitted into the pepsin enzyme.
That is a proteolytic enzyme. Name of the enzyme is pepsin. It is secreted as inactive pepsinogen, which become active when it comes in contact with the hydrochloric acid, in the stomach.
Pepsin is produced in the stomach. Pepsin is an enzyme that digests (hydrolyses) proteins into smaller polypeptide molecules.
Heat affect any enzyme and so pepsin. A temperature about 80 degrees can degarade most of the proteins and pepsin. At this temperature pepsin loose its structure and can not be active after that.
pepsin
The main enzyme in the Stomach is Pepsin which is used to digest protein. Only protein digestion occurs in the stomach and almostt no absorption, (only a little alcohol). This protein is not secreted as its active form (ie not as pepsin) but as the Zymogen (the inactive precursor to proteins) Pepsinogen which cleaves in a low pH to form the active enzyme.
Pepsin is an enzyme found in the stomach.It breaks proteins down into peptides.Pepsinogen:* is an inactive enzyme, so it doesn't digest the cells in the lining of the stomach. * is converted to pepsin by acid in the stomach * is secreted by cells in the lining of the stomach by zymogen (or chief) cells.
Consider the stomach. The inactive form of the digestive enzyme pepsin is called pepsinogin. ( spelling may be wrong ) It takes the release of hydrochloric acid in the stomach to activate this pre-enzyme into pepsin, the active form. You would be digesting your own stomach tissue if pepsin was always active.
pepsin is a enzyme secreted by the gastric glands
The proteolytic or protein eating enzyme of the stomach is called pepsin. Pepsin is secreted into the stomach as a zymogen (or inactive enzyme precursor) called pepsinogen which is converted into the active enzyme form by the hydrochloric acid and low pH in the gastric juices.
No. Pepsin is an enzyme that breaks down protein to peptides. Peptidase is another enzyme that breaks down peptides to amino acid. http://www.answers.com/topic/pepsin http://www.answers.com/topic/peptidase
The proenzyme pepsinogen,on exposure to hydrochloric acid gets converted into active enzyme pepsin,the proteolytic enzyme of the stomach.Pepsin converts proteins into proteoses and peptones(peptides).
