Peptidyl-dipeptidase B (EC 3.4.15.4, dipeptidyl carboxyhydrolase, atriopeptin convertase, atrial di-(tri)peptidyl carboxyhydrolase, peptidyldipeptidase B, atrial dipeptidyl carboxyhydrolase, atrial peptide convertase) is an enzyme.[1][2][3][4] It catalyses the following chemical reaction

Release of a C-terminal dipeptide or exceptionally a tripeptide

This membrane-bound, zinc metallopeptidase is located in mammalian atrial myocytes.
