During the process of digestion, the proteins present in food materials are hydrolysed to amino acids.

Proteins $\stackrel{\mathrm{Enzyme} \left(\mathrm{A}\right)}{\to } \mathrm{Polypeptides} \stackrel{\mathrm{Enzyme}\left(\mathrm{B}\right)}{\to } \mathrm{Amino} \mathrm{acids}$

The two enzymes A and B involved in the process are respectively

• amylase and maltase

• diastase and lipase

• pepsin and trypsin

• Invertase and zymase
