chymotrypsinogen A  M-CSA #387

Chymotrypsin is one of the well known serine proteases found in the human digestive system, and is able to catalyse the breakdown of peptide substrates to amino acids, showing a preference for cleavage after aromatic residues such as phenylalanine. The enzyme shares significant sequence and structural homology to many mammalian serine proteases, including trypsin and elastase, as well as being part of a wider family involving proteases from diverse organisms including bacteria.
