Protease
The enzyme that digests proteins into peptides is called protease.
The enzyme that digests starch is called amylase. It breaks down starch into smaller carbohydrate molecules such as maltose and glucose for absorption in the body.
Yes, protein kinase is an enzyme.
Lipase is the enzyme that digests stains containing fats. Lipases are produced by our pancreas and are responsible for breaking down fats into smaller components that can be easily absorbed by the body.
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.
A protease is an enzyme that digests protein. These enzymes are also known as peptidases.
The enzyme that digests protein is called pepsin, which is primarily active in the stomach and helps break down protein into smaller peptides.
The enzyme that digests starch is called amylase. Amylase is produced in both the saliva (salivary amylase) and the pancreas (pancreatic amylase) and breaks down starch into smaller sugar molecules like maltose.
Gastric juices are secretions from the stomach lining that contain hyrdrochloric acid and an enzyme that digests protein.
the enzyme sucrase
Pepsin in important for the digestion of protein. The enzyme is created in the stomach and breaks down the collagen protein.
what enzyme digests vegetable oil
The name of the type of enzyme that digests stains containing fats is Lipase.
Pepsin is produced in the stomach. Pepsin is an enzyme that digests (hydrolyses) proteins into smaller polypeptide molecules.
Sucrase is the enzyme (called a disaccharidase) that digests sucrose, the major disaccharide in table sugar.
The general term is "proteases" Pepsin cleaves at the "n" terminus produced by the stomach and works in an acidic pH environment. Chymotrypsin and Trypsin are produced by the pancreas which is below the stomach and work in a more basic pH environment.
The enzyme that digests proteins into peptides is called protease.
