The view on the right shows a model of chymotrypsin, an enzyme that digests proteins in the gut. This is a so-called 'spacefill' view, in which each atom is shown as a sphere. Different atoms are coloured individually: grey = carbon, red = oxygen, blue = nitrogen, ''etc''. | The view on the right shows a model of chymotrypsin, an enzyme that digests proteins in the gut.
