Since our stomach has an enzyme which can digest protein, why does protein digestion still take place in small intestine? ------------ The enzymes you a referring to are generally called 'proteases', proteins that degrade other proteins.

The process of digestion breaks down complex food molecules (such as the protein in steak) that the body cannot readily use into simpler, smaller molecules (amino acids) which the body can absorb and use to fuel other life processes.

Protein. Foods such as meat, eggs, and beans consist of giant molecules of protein that must be digested by enzymes before they can be used to build and repair body tissues. An enzyme in the juice of the stomach starts the digestion of swallowed protein.

However, both remained active in 4 mol/L urea and at 60 degrees C. CONCLUSIONS: Protein digestion in the porcine stomach is carried out by pepsin. In vivo gastric digestion is modeled accurately by peptic hydrolysis.

While most enzymatic digestion occurs in the small intestine, protein digestion begins in the stomach through the action of an enzyme called pepsin. Pepsin is secreted as an inactive material called pepsinogen. The acid environment of the stomach activates it, converting it to pepsin.
