- (química macromolecular) The part of chemistry that studies macromolecules (or supermolecules), i.e., large molecules that may contain hundreds or thousands of atoms. A macromolecule, such as a polymer or a protein, consists of many smaller structural units linked together, which is commonly created by the polymerization of smaller subunits (monomers). The most common macromolecules in biochemistry are biopolymers (nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates and lipids) and large non-polymeric molecules (such as lipids and macrocycles).
