Detailed explanation-1: -proteolytic enzyme, also called protease, proteinase, or peptidase, any of a group of enzymes that break the long chainlike molecules of proteins into shorter fragments (peptides) and eventually into their components, amino acids.
Detailed explanation-2: -Of these five components, pepsin is the principal enzyme involved in protein digestion. It breaks down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids that can be easily absorbed in the small intestine.
Detailed explanation-3: -Peptidase is an enzyme that breaks down proteins into amino acids. More specifically, peptidase breaks down peptides, which are chains of two or more amino acids, into single amino acids.
Detailed explanation-4: -Peptidases are enzymes capable of cleaving, and thereby often inactivating, small peptides. They are widely distributed on the surface of many different cell types, with the catalytic site exposed only at the external surface.
