Trypsin-2

Molecular classification
Enzyme, Serine protease
01

Overview

Trypsin-2 is a serine protease enzyme that plays a central role in protein digestion within the small intestine. It is synthesized as an inactive precursor called anionic trypsinogen and activated by enteropeptidase. Beyond digestion, it may play roles in innate immunity.
