Pepsin
Pepsin is a type of aspartic acid hydrolase whose zymogen (pepsinogen) is released by the chief cells in the stomach and that degrades food proteins into peptides. It is also a type of protease. It was discovered in 1836 by Theodor Schwann, then in 1928, it became one of the first enzymes to be crystallized, by John H. Northrop. Pepsin, cooperating with chymotrypsin and trypsin, is one of three principal protein-degrading, or proteolytic, enzymes in the digestive system. The three enzymes were among the first to be isolated in crystalline form.
