Macromolecules - proteins, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides - are formed by the polymerization of hundreds of their low-molecular-weight precursors - amino acids, nucleotides, and simple sugars.

The three-dimensional structure adopted by biological macromolecules largely determines their role in different cellular processes.

Game-changing new theory upends what we know about how charged macromolecules self-assemble Long ignored, dipole-dipole interactions give life its shape Date: September 26, 2022 Source: University ...

Those physicalists really believed that the so-called macromolecules are really just aggregates of smaller molecules, as if they were held together by a physical force such as magnetism, and ...

Scientists are making models for polymer macromolecules using magnets and DNA 'springs' that can be tuned for flexibility.
