Explanation

Chymosin or rennin is an enzyme found in rennet. It is produced by cows in the lining of the abomasum (the fourth and final, chamber of the stomach). Chymosin is produced by gastric chief cells in infants to curdle the milk they ingest, allowing a longer residence in the bowels and better absorption.
