How does trypsin digest protein?

Trypsin digests protein(polypeptide) by cleaving the peptide chain at specific sites. Trypsin cleaves the peptide chain after Lysine(K) or Arginine(R) residues (amino acids) except when followed by a Proline(P) residue. Generally, the tryptic digestion leaves behind the protein as peptide chains having none or one Lysine or Arginine residue. This property of trypsin is widely used to study the protein primary structure and identification of proteins by analysing the resultant peptides using mass sepectrometry (MS).
