Question

List at least four enzymes that contribute towards digesting proteins

Answer 1

Answer:

pepsin,trypsin, amalyse and proteases

Answer 2

Listed below are the four enzymes for digesting the proteins :

1. Pepsin

This enzyme breaks the proteins into peptides named proteoses and the peptones.

2. Trypsin

Converts the peptides into more simpler forms which are called dipeptides.

3. Carboxypeptidase

This enzyme is also involved in breaking the peptones into dipeptides which are the simpler form.

4. Dipeptidases

This enzyme has the major role in converting the dipeptides into amino acids. Amino acids are the most simplest form of proteins.
