Talk:Trypsin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Where did Trypsin get its name from?
Where is trypsin found in the body and what proteins does it break down?
At what temperature is the enzyme(trypsin) denatured, and is it denatured when it passes through to a different site to where it is not usually found, due to the pH. Is gelatine the only protein that is broken down by trypsin or do different enzymes break it down as well.

Trypsin is made in the pancreas then secreted in to the intestine
pH cannot denature an enzyme, only stretch the bonds that hold it together. When pH levels are suitable again, the enzyme returns to its normal shape.
User:Alexsheppard11 Biology coursework on enzymes helped me with your questions:P
How about some general info like MW, PI etc. Jasoninkid 16:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
