14. [6a] According to Kobayashi,[2b] enzymatic polymerization is defined as "chemical synthesis of a polymer in vitro by nonbiosynthetic pathways catalyzed by an isolated enzyme". Although a rather new methodology in synthetic polymer chemistry, it has many features in common with conventional enzyme-catalyzed reactions;
