12. Macromolecules are synthesized by stepwise polymerization of monomers The basic principles for the synthesis of macromolecules: 1. Macromolecules are synthesized by stepwise polymerization of similar or identical monomers 2. The addition of each monomeric units occurs with the removal of a H2O molecule -- condensation reaction 3. Momomeric units are activated 4. Activation usually involves coupling of monomers to carrier molecule 5. ATP (adenosine phosphate provides energy ) 6. Directionality of macromolecules
