Dipeptidyl-dipeptidase (EC 3.4.14.6, dipeptidyl tetrapeptide hydrolase, dipeptidyl ligase, tetrapeptide dipeptidase) is an enzyme.^[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Preferential release of dipeptides from a tetrapeptide, e.g. Ala-Gly!Ala-Gly. Acts more slowly on Ala-Ala!Ala-Ala and Gly-Gly!Gly-Gly

This thiol-activated peptidase is isolated from cabbage (Brassica oleracea).
