Pepsin (excreted by glands in the stomach) digest proteins into polypeptides in the stomach, whereas the trypsin (excreted by pancreas in the pancreatic juice) digest proteins into polypeptides in the small intestine. Then the erepsin (excreted by pancreas in the pancreatic juice) further digest them into amino acids.

∙ 15y agoProteins are polypeptides. Can you be more specific with your question? Enzymes would be a possible, but very broad, answer.

Is Enzyme a monomer or polymer?
Enzymes are a type of protein, which are amino acid polymers.
What is digested by the enzyme protease?
proteins into amino acids.
Suppose that enzyme X catalyzes a reaction that involves the breakdown of a molecule. The product of this reaction is an amino acid. What molecule is the enzyme breaking down?
it might be a protein.. since proteins are polymers of various amino acids..
What nutrient is chemically broken down in the stomach?
Protein into amino acids by enzymes and hydrochloric acid!
Most enzymes are made of?
Enzyme are proteins, and, thus, have the same building blocks. They are made up of amino acids.
Is Enzyme a monomer or polymer?
Enzymes are a type of protein, which are amino acid polymers.
What monomer makes up enzyme?
amino acids make proteins and an enzyme is a protein so......
What is digested by the enzyme protease?
proteins into amino acids.
What is C1289H2051N3430375S8?
A Tryptophan synthetase A protein, an enzyme that has 267 amino acids.
What substance is composed of amino acids?
Polypeptide, which will turn into an active protein or an enzyme.
What enzymes turn protein into amino acids what are the names of the enzymes?
All Enzymes are basically proteins. Amino acids are building blocks of proteins. Another Answer No enzyme 'turns' a protein into multiple amino acids. What an enzyme may do is split a protein down to its substituent amino acids. (Proteins are inherently long stings of amino acids joined by peptide bonds.) The group of enzymes that split proteins (hydrolyse proteins) to their single amino acids are called proteases. Pepsin is a protease released by the stomach. Trypsin is a protease released by the pancreas.
What is the role of aminopeptidases in protein digestion?
Aminopeptidase convert amino acids.
Suppose that enzyme X catalyzes a reaction that involves the breakdown of a molecule. The product of this reaction is an amino acid. What molecule is the enzyme breaking down?
it might be a protein.. since proteins are polymers of various amino acids..
What does proteins breakdown into?
protein breaks down into pectiducts from the trypsin enzyme, then it is further broken down by pectin enzyme into amino acids
What is a protein monomer?
amino acids are the monomers for protein
What nutrient is chemically broken down in the stomach?
Protein into amino acids by enzymes and hydrochloric acid!
Most enzymes are made of?
Enzyme are proteins, and, thus, have the same building blocks. They are made up of amino acids.
