THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF DIGESTIVE ENZYMES

Oxyntic glands also contain chief cells that secrete the zymogen pepsinogen. Pepsinogen could be the precursor to the proteolytic enzyme pepsin and needs to be activated to pepsin with the acidic pH on the tummy (below three.five) or from autoactivation by pepsin itself. Pepsin then acts on The interior peptide bonds of proteins for the best pH of
