Pepsin is found in the stomach of a human being. It turns food proteins into peptides and is considered a digestive protease.
What else can I help you with?
What is the enzyme for a protein substrate?
Protease enzymes, such as trypsin or pepsin, are responsible for breaking down protein substrates into smaller peptides and amino acids by catalyzing hydrolysis of peptide bonds.
Name the two enzymes that take part in digestion of proteins in your body?
The two enzymes that take part in the digestion of proteins in the body are pepsin, which is produced in the stomach, and trypsin, which is produced in the pancreas.
What enzyme work on proteins?
There are several types. Protease,tripsin,pepsin aresome
Enzyme that digest proteins?
Proteases are enzyme that digest proteins. In stomach we have proteases such as trypsin, pepsin and chymotrypsin that digest proteins. In addition there are peptidases that digest the peptides to simple amino acids.
Is there any digested BAPNA contaminating the pepsin or deionized water?
BAPNA is a synthetic substrate used in enzymatic assays to measure protease activity, while pepsin is a protease enzyme. If BAPNA is not properly washed away after use, it may contaminate the pepsin or deionized water used in the experiment. It is important to always thoroughly clean and rinse equipment to avoid cross-contamination.
What is the name of a gastric protease?
Pepsin
Where can protease ba found in the human body?
pepsin in the stomach and erepsin in the small intestine (ileum).
What parts of the human body does pepsin come from?
Pepsin is a digestive protease released by the chief cells in the stomach that functions to degrade food proteins into peptides
What enzyme contained in gastric juice?
Protease (pepsin) plus hydrochloric acid
What are some e xamples of a gastric protease?
Pepsin is one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepsin
Is there any other name for Pepsin A?
Yes, gastric protease

Where is protease found in your body?
I just had an assignment on this, protease is released from the pancreas and breaks down proteins in your stomach along with pepsin and rennin which are released from the stomach glands protease comes from the pancreas
What enzyme begins the breakdown of protein?
The enzyme pepsin, found in the stomach, is responsible for beginning the breakdown of proteins into smaller peptides. It works in an acidic environment to break down proteins into smaller peptides that can be further digested and absorbed by the body.
