[[Elastase]] (ELA) is a chymotrypsin-like serine protease which breaks down proteins.  The ELAs are numbered according to their genes.  Panceatic ELA cleaves proteins at the carboxyl-terminal side of small neutral amino acids.  It cleaves Ala-Ala and Ala-Gly bonds.  <ref>PMID:12059069</ref>  For additional details see [[Serine Proteases]].
