It neutralizes the hydrochloric acid from the stomach. When the digestion of the protein is finished in the stomach, the HCl is not removed from the stomach and is passed down to the duodenum. Since the small intestine cannot handle such low pH, it releases trypsin which neutralizes the HCl so that the optimal level of pH can be reached (around 7). Without trypsin, all the digestive enzymes releases in the small intestine, along with the wall of the intestine itself would be broken down and eaten away by the strong acid.
Trypsin and chymotrypsin are the enzymes, that are secreted by your pancreas. They digest the polypeptides into amino acids. Polypeptides are formed from proteins in the stomach by the action of pepsin.
Trypsin, from the pancreas, is an enzyme that helps in the digestion of proteins.
Trypsin is a serine protease found in the digestive system, where it breaks down proteins.
Trypsin is an enyme that helps with digestion
A protease, protein hydrolysis enzyme, manufactured in the pancreas as the inactive trypsiogen. Then activates in the proper pH and in concentrations of proteins to help digest them.
Trypsin can be defined as a serine protease found in the digestive system of many vertebrates, where it hydrolyses proteins. Trypsin helps in the digestion of food.
splits protein into amino acids
breaking down proteins
37°C 37°C this is body temperature. trypsin works in the duodenum during digestion at this optimun temperature.
Trypsin is a proteolytic enzyme, important for the digestion of proteins. In humans, the protein is produced in its inactive form, trypsinogen, within the pancreas.Trypsinogen enters the small intestine, via the common bile duct, where it converted to active trypsin.
Chemical digestion
it has protein digesting enzymes called trypsin which breaks proteins into peptides
The small intestine is a convoluted tube in which chemical digestion is completed..
Trypsin completes the digestion of proteins. Pepsin in the stomach starts the digestion of proteins.
trypsin, bile, lipase
No, trypsinogen is a zymogen, an enzyme precursor, an inactive chemical produced by the pancreas. In the intestine, trypsinogen is activated by the mucosal enzyme enteropeptidease to produce the enzyme trypsin which is critical to digestion.
37°C 37°C this is body temperature. trypsin works in the duodenum during digestion at this optimun temperature.
Trypsin is an enzyme, a chemical compound that catalyzes (helps) another chemical change. It is made by the pancreas and secreted into the small intestine in the digestive juices to digest proteins. Some plants, namely papaya which contains papain, produce proteases that are similar.
There are many. Digestion is a twofold process; physical digestion and enzymatic digestion. Physical digestion is the act of eating food to break it into smaller parts. Enzymatic digestion is where enzymes (chemical compounds produced by the body) break the food down at a molecular level. Enzymes include salivary amylase, pepsin, lipase, trypsin and many, many more.
The stomach has a very acidic environment. This favors the breakdown of proteins. An enzyme (i.e. a biological catalyst) called trypsin is active at acidic conditions (gastric juice) and is responsible for the break down of proteins in the stomach.

Enzyme trypsin is one of the enzymes that plays part during the process of digestion. Its site of action is in the small intestine where it breaks protein to large peptides.
Chemical digestion and mechanical digestion
