Enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts to speed up chemical reactions in the body. Each enzyme has a specific name that often reflects its function or the substrate it acts upon. For example, amylase breaks down starch into sugars, while lactase helps digest lactose in dairy products. Overall, the term "enzyme" refers to a broad category of proteins, rather than a single enzyme.
Protease is a protein-degrading enzyme produced in the pancreas.

Thromboplastin (protein) your welcome. -Eli Joe
no it is not a hormone, it is a protein substance produced in living cells that catalyzes reaction.
The enzyme that digests protein is called pepsin, which is primarily active in the stomach and helps break down protein into smaller peptides.
Trypsin is an enzyme that is produced in the pancreas. After the human pancreas binds to a molecule of protein, auto catalysis occurs to a molecule of trypsin.
Pepsin is produced in the stomach. Pepsin is an enzyme that digests (hydrolyses) proteins into smaller polypeptide molecules.
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.
Yes, protein kinase is an enzyme.
The type of molecule that is an enzyme is a protein molecule.
