When cells make enzymes, especially proteases, they often make them as zymogen, an inactive form of the enzyme. ... For example: PROthrombin is the zymogen form of thrombin, an enzyme involved in blood clotting. PepsinoGEN is the zymogen form of pepsin, the enzyme found in your stomach that helps digest food. An example of zymogen is pepsinogen. Pepsinogen is the precursor of pepsin. Pepsinogen is inactive until it is released by chief cells into HCl.
