| This activation of trypsinogen to trypsin is initiated by the cleavage from it of six terminal amino acid residues. |
| The precursors are called trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, proelastase, and procarboxypeptidase. |
| As trypsinogen is secreted into the duodenum, it is changed into trypsin by enterokinase. |
| Bayliss went on to demonstrate how the enzyme trypsin was formed from inactive trypsinogen in the small intestine and to measure precisely the time required for a trypsin solution to digest specific quantities of protein. |
| Activation peptide of carboxypeptidase B and anionic trypsinogen as early predictors of the severity of acute pancreatitis. |
| Examples of important proenzymes include pepsinogen, trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen, which give rise to the proteolytic digestive enzymes. |
