Perpsin:
1. It is secreted from the gastric glands of stomach.
2. It is secreted in inactive form called pepsinogen.
3. It acts on protein and converts them into proteoses and peptones.
4. It catalyses in acidic medium.
Trypsin:
1. It is secreted from the exocrine pancreas.
2. It is secreted in inactive form called trypsinogen.
3. It acts on proteoses and peptones and converts them into polypeptides.
4. It catalyses in alkaline medium.

Pepsin is an enzyme that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides (that is, a protease). It is produced in the stomach and is one of the main digestive enzymes in the digestive systems of humans and many other animals, where it helps digest the proteins in food.
Trypsin is formed in the small intestine when its proenzyme form, the trypsinogen produced by the pancreas, is activated. Trypsin cleaves peptide chains mainly at the carboxyl side of the amino acids lysine or arginine, except when either is followed by proline..
