Enzyme X extracted from the digestive system hydrolyses peptide bonds. Which of the following is probable candidate to be enzyme X?
(a) Amylase
(b) Lipase
(c) Trypsin
(d) Maltase
Answer is : (c) Trypsin
In duodenum, trypsin enzyme catalyses the hydrolysis of peptide bonds, breaking down proteins into smaller peptides. Amylase hydrolyses starch into maltose inside the mouth. Lipase breaks down dietary fats into fatty acids and glycerol. Maltase hydrolyses maltose into simple sugar glucose.
Correct option (C) Trypsin
Explanation:
Enzyme ‘X’ hydrolyses peptide bond so it is a proteolytic enzyme –
⇒ Amylase → Starch digesting enzyme
⇒ Lipase → Fact digesting enzyme
⇒ Trypsin → Protein digesting enzyme
⇒ Maltase → Maltose digesting enzyme (Disaccharides)
