When we eat protein, the body uses several enzymes to break it down into individual amino acids, which can be absorbed into the body. One of the most studied enzymes is chymotrypsin, but another protein digestion enzyme is trypsin. Chymotrypsin and trypsin are very similar enzymes, thus when studying trypsin it is often in comparison to chymotrypsin.
One of the main differences between trypsin and chymotrypsin is which amino acids residues it selects for. Chymotrypsin cleaves the protein at the c-terminal of aromatic amino acids while trypsin cleaves the protein at the c-terminal of the basic amino acids lysine and arginine.
