Question

Which enzymes converts proteins and peptones into amino acids?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The digestion in animal or human is a complex process. This involves the break down of various biomolecules present in the food into forms which can be easily digested by the body.

In human digestion process, the proteins present in the food are broken down into smaller peptides and further into amino acids. The proteins are converted into small peptide chains by the enzymes present in the digestive system like pepsin, chymotrypsin, trypsin and elastase. These small peptide chains are further converted into amino acids by the enzymes such as aminopeptidase, carboxypeptidase and dipeptidase.    

Answer 2

The enzymes that convert proteins and peptones into amino acids are the proteases.

Explanation:  

• The protein is a heteropolymer that is made up of many amino acids; these proteins are sometimes broken down into their amino acid sequence by the protease enzyme.

• An enzyme is a protein substance that ‘catalyses reactions’ by reducing the ‘activation energy’ of the reactions.  

• ‘Activation energy’ is the energy required for the reactant to get converted to product.
