(b) Pepsingen (inactive form) is first changed by HCI into an active enzyme pepsin. Then, through autocatalysis, more of pepsinogen gets activated to pepsin. Thereafter, pepsin hydrolyses the proteins partially to proteoses and peptones.
Pepsinogen + `HCI to` pepsin
Proteins `overset("Pepsin")(to)` proteoses and peptones (peptides)
