What else can I help you with?
Why it is so that pepsin enzyme will not act if its active site is occupied by carbohydrate molecules?
The carbohydrate molecule should not get fitted into the pepsin enzyme.
Explain the effect of pH on pepsin in terms of the active site of the enzyme?
nothing
Which hormone controls the production of hydrochloric acid and the release of pepsin?
Gastrin is the hormone that controls the production of hydrochloric acid and the release of pepsin in the stomach. It is released in response to food entering the stomach and stimulates the gastric glands to produce these digestive juices.
Will pepsin dissolve in water?
Yes, pepsin is a soluble enzyme that can dissolve in water. It is commonly used in laboratory settings and in industries like food production due to its ability to break down proteins.
What is the difference between pepsin and pepsinogen?
Pepsin is a powerful protein digesting enzyme which is far too dangerous in its active form so it is released in an inactive pepsinogen form by the cell and activated only in the digestive tract where it is required to be active.
What food does pepsin begin to breakdown?
Pepsin begins the digetion of Protein. Pepsin is found in the stomach.
Which enzyme works best in alkaline conditions?
Pepsin in the stomach
Where is pepsin produced What is the effect of pepsin on protein?
Pepsin is produced in the stomach. Pepsin is an enzyme that digests (hydrolyses) proteins into smaller polypeptide molecules.
Is pepsin a protein?
Yes, pepsin is a protein.
What is the production of protein?
what is the site of protein production in a cell?
Is pepsin a carbohydrate?
No, pepsin is a protein digestive enzyme.
In an experiment of Pepsin and BAPNA is pepsin the substrate?
No, pepsin is not the substrate in the experiment with BAPNA. BAPNA is the synthetic substrate used in this experiment to test the activity of the enzyme pepsin by measuring the rate of substrate cleavage. Pepsin acts on BAPNA as the enzyme, not the substrate.
