Enzyme-mediated Polymerization

Enzyme-Mediated Polymerization is a biocatalytic process in which enzymes act as catalysts to facilitate the formation of covalent bonds between monomeric units, thereby synthesizing biopolymers with high specificity and stereoregularity under mild reaction conditions.
