_(protease)___ favors residues that contain hydrophobic amino acids
Chymotrypsin
Smaller peptides formed by trypsin, chymotryp., and elastase are then attacked by _____
exopeptidases

Carboxypeptidase A relaeases hydrophobic amino acids
B releases basic AA's (arginine lysine)
In people with ___ ____ the pancreatic secretory ducts become dried and thickened and leads to duct obstruction - digestive problems
