what organic compound does pepsin catalyze
No, it is not an organic compound.
no - it lacks carbon
10o Celsius = 50o Fahrenheit, which may be a little low for the optimum efficiency of the pepsin enzyme.
There are several types. Protease,tripsin,pepsin aresome
The optimum pH of pepsin is pH2. Pepsin is found in the stomach and it is protease enzyme that digest protein into smaller molecule. The stomach is suitable place for it because it is acidic , so it's activity increases in the acidic environment.
No, it is not an organic compound.
no - it lacks carbon
Protein digestion requires the presence of both pepsin and HCl because pepsin needs an acidic environment to be able to "work" or do its job. Pepsin needs an environment with a pH around 2, which is roughly the pH of HCl. Therefore, HCl aids pepsin in protien digestions by creating an optimal environment for pepsin to work and digest proteins.
To denature the protein. Pepsin can work pnly if the secondary structure of the protein is broken up.
What substance must be present in the stomach for pepsin to work best? *
lipids. your welcomee.. a freshman answered this questionnn ! <3
not sure too
pepsin would work best at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 C) because it is the average normal body temperature.
10o Celsius = 50o Fahrenheit, which may be a little low for the optimum efficiency of the pepsin enzyme.
Contrary to popular belief, the acid is not directly responsible for the digestion of nutrients in the stomach. The hydrochloric acid is there to provide suitable acidic conditions for pepsin to work efficiently. The pepsin breaks down proteins into smaller amino acids.
Yes. Proteins do all the work and catalyze all the reactions.
