Also known as dipeptides
A dipeptide is an organic compound derived from two amino acids. The constituent amino acids can be the same or different. When different, two isomers of the dipeptide are possible, depending on the sequence. Several dipeptides are physiologically important, and some are both physiologically and commercially significant. A well known dipeptide is aspartame, an artificial sweetener.

二肽（Dipeptide），亦作雙肽或二胜肽，是一種由兩個氨基酸藉由一個肽鍵組成的多肽，利用分解多肽可得到二肽。食物中的蛋白質進入動物的消化系統時會被分解成二肽和氨基酸，再被利用不同的機制分別吸收。二肽也能夠激活胃中的分泌胃泌素。就是用來製備二肽的有機化學反應。
