Macromolecules

macromolecules Large molecules made up of many small organic molecules that are often referred to as monomers; e.g., carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Macromolecules are polymers of monomers.

In the late endocytic pathway, it has been proposed that endocytosed macromolecules are delivered to a proteolytic environment by 'kiss-and-run' events or direct fusion between late endosomes and lysosomes.

So it has to assemble a whole bunch of macromolecules at that spot. And then it has to become ready, and then it has to wait for the calcium to come in, and then it can fuse.

Polymers are a subclass of macromolecules.
Polymerization is the chemical process in which a series of simple structural units (monomers) combine to form a large chainlike molecule (polymers).

In DNA sequencing gels, urea is included to denature dsDNA to ssDNA strands. In denaturing gels, macromolecules tend to be separated on the basis of size and (to some extent) charge, while shape and oligomerization of molecules are not important.
