The first stages of digestion for protein occur in the stomach, here the enzyme pepsin breaks down the majority of the protein into separate amino acid molecules. The next stage is in the duodenum of the small intestine.
Once you digest food the enzymes in the intestine will digest the nutrients into small components. So that they could be absorbed by the intestine into the bloodstream, and throughout the body in order to be reused by the body cells.
Enzymes are protein materials found in all areas of the body. In the respiratory system, enzymes act as catalyst for the many chemical reactions.
Protein-cutting enzymes are made in the ribsomes of cells.
To break down complex molecule for the body to digest.
Enzymes dont digest proteins they act as cataylst to break down the protein, there is a difference. :D As one enzyme is specifc to one type of protein, there are a wide variety of them, For example. Amylose (in out saliva) is catalyst by amylase the enzyme. Lactose in dairy is cataylsed by the enzyme lactase. And Cellulose (in plant cell walls) is catalysted by Celluase.
Enzymes are a type of proteins themselves but what enzymes do is they break down large macromolecules into smaller molecules that can be reassembled to synthesize materials. So enzymes can break things down and build them up, proteins included.

No amount of honey will digest fat. Enzymes produced by the body digest fat
Proteins that carry out enzymatic activity are known as enzymes. Enzymes can catalyze the conversion of substrate into the product. In digestion hydrolytic enzymes such as proteases, lipases, glycosidases such as amylase digest proteins, lipases, and carbohydrates respectively.
cellulose.there are no enzymes in our body to digest cellulose
Enzymes
Enzymes, such as pepsin and trypsin, are found in the body and aid in breaking down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids during digestion. These enzymes work by catalyzing chemical reactions to facilitate protein digestion in the stomach and small intestine.
