Pepsin A

Index Pepsin A

Pepsin A (pepsin, lactated pepsin, pepsin fortior, fundus-pepsin, elixir lactate of pepsin, P I, lactated pepsin elixir, P II, pepsin R, pepsin D) is an enzyme. [1]

10 relations: Aromaticity, Catalysis, Chemical reaction, Endopeptidase, Enzyme, Gastric acid, Hydrophobe, Insulin, Pepsin, Vertebrate.

Aromaticity

In organic chemistry, the term aromaticity is used to describe a cyclic (ring-shaped), planar (flat) molecule with a ring of resonance bonds that exhibits more stability than other geometric or connective arrangements with the same set of atoms.

Catalysis

Catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction due to the participation of an additional substance called a catalysthttp://goldbook.iupac.org/C00876.html, which is not consumed in the catalyzed reaction and can continue to act repeatedly.

Chemical reaction

A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical substances to another.

Endopeptidase

Endopeptidase or endoproteinase are proteolytic peptidases that break peptide bonds of nonterminal amino acids (i.e. within the molecule), in contrast to exopeptidases, which break peptide bonds from end-pieces of terminal amino acids.

Enzyme

Enzymes are macromolecular biological catalysts.

Gastric acid

Gastric acid, gastric juice or stomach acid, is a digestive fluid formed in the stomach and is composed of hydrochloric acid (HCl), potassium chloride (KCl) and sodium chloride (NaCl).

Hydrophobe

In chemistry, hydrophobicity is the physical property of a molecule (known as a hydrophobe) that is seemingly repelled from a mass of water.

Insulin

Insulin (from Latin insula, island) is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells of the pancreatic islets; it is considered to be the main anabolic hormone of the body.

Pepsin

Pepsin is an endopeptidase that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides (that is, a protease).

Vertebrate

Vertebrates comprise all species of animals within the subphylum Vertebrata (chordates with backbones).
