GlossaryTrypsin

enzyme that digests proteins in the small intestine

Trypsin is an enzyme produced in the pancreas that plays a crucial role in digestion. It breaks down proteins in the small intestine into smaller peptides, making it easier for the body to absorb nutrients. For professionals, it's important to note that trypsin is initially produced as an inactive precursor called trypsinogen, which is then activated in the small intestine.
