Digestion of proteins in intestine
1. Entry of acidic contents from stomach into intestine triggers secretion of hormones cholecystokinin and secretin
2. Secretin stimulates release of bicarbonate and pancreatic juice
3. Cholecystokinin stimulates secretion of pancreatic endopeptidases and exopeptidases
4. Endopeptidases (trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase) cleave internal peptide bonds
5. Carboxypeptidase and aminopeptidase hydrolyze peptide bonds from carboxyl and amino terminal ends respectively
