Difference between Pepsin and Phenylalanine

Pepsin vs. Phenylalanine

Pepsin is an endopeptidase that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides (that is, a protease). Phenylalanine (symbol Phe or F) is an α-amino acid with the formula.

Similarities between Pepsin and Phenylalanine

Pepsin and Phenylalanine have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amino acid, Hydrophobe, Peptide, Protein, Tryptophan, Tyrosine.

Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

Hydrophobe

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

Peptide

Peptides (from Gr.: πεπτός, peptós "digested"; derived from πέσσειν, péssein "to digest") are short chains of amino acid monomers linked by peptide (amide) bonds.
