Answer:

Pepsin is the enzyme in gastric juice.

Additional information:-

  • Pepsin is the chief digestive enzyme in the stomach that breaks down proteins
  • We see that chief cells produce pepsinogen (an inactive form of pepsin).
  • Pepsinogen is converted to pepsin when the parietal cells found within the gastric glands secrete hydrochloric acid.
  • A low pH (1.5 to 2) activates pepsin

Hope it helps you

Thanks...
