Answer:
Enteropeptidase (enterokinase) is an enzyme secreted from intestinal glands (the crypts of Lieberkuhn) following the entry of ingested food passing from the stomach. It converts trypsinogen (a zymogen) into its active form trypsin, resulting in the subsequent activation of pancreatic digestive enzymes.
