Enzymes that acts on proteins helps to break the peptides bonds present in proteins.they break up the polypeptide chains into amino acids .An example is trypsin .the conditions necessary for these enzymes to acts may be specific.some require acidic environment while others require basic environment.pepsin for example requires stomach hydrochloric acid to be converted from it's inactive form, pepsinogen.
