==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
[[Protease]]s are a group of [[Digestive Enzyme|digestive enzymes]] which break down [[protein]]s into [[Amino Acid|amino acids]].
===About Protease===
There are three main [[protease]]s in the [[human]] [[Digestive System|digestive system]] that you should know:
*[[Pepsin]]
*[[Trypsin]]
*[[Peptidase]]
