Trypsin is secreted into the duodenum, where it acts to hydrolyse peptides into their smaller building blocks, namely amino acids (these peptides are the result of the enzyme pepsin breaking down the proteins in the stomach).
The specific site along the protein chain where trypsin is active are those with the amino acids lysine and arginine, two of the smaller amino acids. The enzyme chymotrypsin, another pancreatic enzyme, also cuts the larger protein chain but at different sites from where trypsin cuts.
