Step 1

1)  Glycylalanine is a protein formed by the combination of glycine and alanine. Thus, glycylalnine has a peptide bond that can be hydrolyzed to give back its constituent amino acids- glycine and alanine. This process is called hydrolysis of peptide bonds and thus needs the presence of an enzyme called protease or peptidase.
