Trypsin is an enzyme in the first section of the small intestine that starts the digestion of protein molecules by cutting long chains of amino acids into smaller pieces. It is a serine protease from the PA clan superfamily, found in the digestive system of many vertebrates, where it hydrolyzes proteins.

Crystal structure of Trypsin, a typical serine protease.. Serine proteases (or serine endopeptidases) are enzymes that cleave peptide bonds in proteins. Serine serves as the nucleophilic amino acid at the (enzyme's) active site. [1]
Trypsinogen (/ ˌ t r ɪ p ˈ s ɪ n ə dʒ ə n,-ˌ dʒ ɛ n / [1] [2]) is the precursor form (or zymogen) of trypsin, a digestive enzyme.It is produced by the pancreas and found in pancreatic juice, along with amylase, lipase, and chymotrypsinogen.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin or α 1-antitrypsin (A1AT, α 1 AT, A1A, or AAT) is a protein belonging to the serpin superfamily. It is encoded in humans by the SERPINA1 gene.A protease inhibitor, it is also known as alpha 1 –proteinase inhibitor (A1PI) or alpha 1-antiproteinase (A1AP) because it inhibits various proteases (not just trypsin).

Trypsinization is the process of cell dissociation using trypsin, a proteolytic enzyme which breaks down proteins, to dissociate adherent cells from the vessel in which they are being cultured. When added to cell culture, trypsin breaks down the proteins that enable the cells to adhere to the vessel.
Enteropeptidase (also called enterokinase) is an enzyme produced by cells of the duodenum and is involved in digestion in humans and other animals. Enteropeptidase converts trypsinogen (a zymogen) into its active form trypsin, resulting in the subsequent activation of pancreatic digestive enzymes.
