Term ID

GO:0051260

Synonyms

protein homooligomer assembly
protein homooligomer biosynthesis
protein homooligomer biosynthetic process
protein homooligomer formation
protein homooligomerization activity

Definition

The process of creating protein oligomers, compounds composed of a small number, usually between three and ten, of identical component monomers. Oligomers may be formed by the polymerization of a number of monomers or the depolymerization of a large protein polymer.
