Trypsin

Trypsin is an essential enzyme that is essential to the digestive systems of many animals, including humans. The small intestine is where it is secreted after being predominantly created in the pancreas, where it works to break down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. This enzymatic activity aids in converting dietary proteins into a form that may be readily absorbed by the intestinal tract, which is necessary for appropriate nutrient absorption in the body. Trypsin is a member of a broader class of enzymes known as proteases, which work together to ensure the effective breakdown of proteins.
