Pepsin is the chief digestive enzyme in the stomach that breaks down proteins. We see that chief cells produce pepsinogen (an inactive form of pepsin). Pepsinogen is converted to pepsin when the parietal cells found within the gastric glands secrete hydrochloric acid. Pepsin is a nonspecific protease which is only active at acid pH, and is irreversibly denatured at neutral or alkaline pH as it moves from the stomach into the duodenum. It is therefore essential to make up the pepsin solution from powder in an acidic buffer.
