The digestion process of proteins begin with the action of an enzyme that is called pepsin. Pepsin is the protein digestive enzyme that is located in the stomach. The digestion of proteins occur in the stomach. The proteins are broken down into amino acids and these are absorbed in the small intestines and transported into the blood stream.
