Sequence-defined polymer

Sequence-defined polymer (Syn.

sequence-specific polymer, sequence-ordered polymer) is a uniform macromolecule with an exact chain-length and a perfectly defined sequence of monomers.

[1][2] In other words, each monomer unit is at a defined position in the chain e.g. peptides, proteins, oligonucleotides.

[3] Sequence-defined polymers constitute therefore a subclass of the field of sequence-controlled polymers.
