Abstract

A method for producing a dipeptide including the step of exposing a carboxy component and an amine component to an enzyme having an activity to hydrolyze amino acid ester. Such a hydrolase has been found among enzymes in bacteria. The method is useful for producing a peptide simply and inexpensively with a high yield without taking complicate synthetic methods.
