DIGESTION

ENDOPEPTIDASE:

Hydrolises the peptide bonds in the central region of the polypeptide chain. To produce smaller polypeptide chains to increase the number of terminal ends for the exopeptidase to digest.

EXOPEPTIDASE:

Hydrolises the peptide bond at the terminal ends of the polypeptide chain to produce dipeptide or amino acids. 

THE SALIVA CONSISTS OF:

• Water 99.5% 
• Mineral salts which mantain slightly alkalai conditions
