A proteolytic enzyme present in the pancreatic juice. Unlike the pepsin of the gastric juice, it acts in a neutral or alkaline fluid, and not only converts the albuminous matter of the food into soluble peptones, but also, in part, into leucin and tyrosin.
Digestive enzyme used in cell culture laboratories to dissolve the natural "glue" that fibroblasts and other cells secrete that causes the cells to stick to culture vessels. This "trypsinizing" of the cultured cells causes the cells to detach from the culture vessel so that they can be transferred to another container.
A natural enzyme that destroys irritants, but can also damage lung tissue.
A protein-digesting enzyme. Secreted by the pancreas in its inactive form (trypsinogen), it becomes active in the duodenum of the small intestine.
an enzyme which is produced by the pancreas. It is a protease.
proteolytic enzyme in pancreatic secretion that acts on peptide linkages containing a carboxyl group of either lysine or arginine.
One of the pancreatic proteases.
A proteolytic enzyme that digests proteins into peptides. Produced in abundance by the pancreas.
An enzyme formed in the intestine from the action of the intestinal juice on trypsinogen that is secreted by the pancreas and present in pancreatic juice. It breaks down partly digested protein forming amino acids and polypeptides.
an enzyme of pancreatic origin; catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins to smaller polypeptide units
Trypsin is an enzyme secreted by the pancreas that continues the digestion of proteins by breaking down peptones into smaller peptide chains.
A proteolytic enzyme secreted by the pancreas and released into the intestine.
A proteolytic enzyme required to remove anchorage-dependent cells from their attached substratum.
A digestive enzyme (formed in the small intestine) which breaks down polypeptides or proteins.
A proteolytic enzyme that hydrolyzes peptide bonds on the carboxyl side of the amino acids arginine and lysine.
a proteolytic enzyme most often used to dissociate cells from their culture vessels during subculture.
an enzyme that acts to degrade protein. One of three principal digestive proteinases (pepsin, chymotrypsin) in the digestive process.
A digestive enzyme secreted from the pancreas in to the intestine. Trypsin breaks down large protein molecules into its constituent molecules – amino acids.
