The enzyme named pepsin is released by some chief cells that can be found in the stomach. This enzyme has the capability and the role of degrading food proteins into peptides, thus producing digestion. Discovered in 1836, pepsin was the first revealed enzyme and also the first that was crystallized.
Best Answer: Unfortuantely, pepsin is secreted to help digest proteins. To be more exact, pepsinogen is unactivated pepsin that can be converted into pepsin by HCl. To protect the stomach lining from HCl damage, your stomach has a mucus coat that regenerates every 2 weeks. Plus, your stomach secretes HCl because pepsin works best in a very very acidic environment of like 3 pH.
