Chymotrypsin is produced by the Pancreas and has the function of digesting proteins.It consists of three polypeptide chains connected by two inter-chain disulfide bridges. Chymotrypsin exerts an important biological function which is the hydrolysis of proteins in the small intestine. The cleavage of peptide bonds is selective, occurring only on the carboxyl side of aromatic side chains of tyrosine, tryptophan and phenylalanine, and large hydrophobic radicals such as methionine. Chymotrypsin also hydrolyzes ester
