Illustration of a polypeptide macromolecule

A macromolecule is a very large molecule commonly created by polymerization of smaller subunits. In biochemistry, the term is applied to the four conventional biopolymers (nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids), as well as non-polymeric molecules with large molecular mass such as macrocycles. The individual constituent molecules of macromolecules are called monomers (mono=single, meros=part).
