Certain plants, including soybeans and other legumes, produce an enzyme called trypsin inhibitor (TI) as a defense mechanism to prevent pests from consuming them. As the name implies, a TI blocks the activity of trypsin, a digestive enzyme that monogastric (single-stomached) animals depend on to break down proteins.
