Term Name: protein polymerization
Synonyms: protein polymer biosynthesis, protein polymer biosynthetic process, protein polymer formation
Definition: The process of creating protein polymers, compounds composed of a large number of component monomers; polymeric proteins may be made up of different or identical monomers. Polymerization occurs by the addition of extra monomers to an existing poly- or oligomeric protein.
