Top: Business: Chemicals: Biochemical: Biopolymers: Proteins

Sites for proteins that have been derived from genetically modified organisms, or from cell-free expression systems should be submitted to the appropriate Molecular_Biology category.
Sites for Proteins manufactured specifically for their catalytic properties should be submitted to the Enzymes sub-category.
Sites exclusively about proteins for biotherapeutic or other medical use should be submitted to links or a sub-category of Biopharmaceuticals.

Sites representing the Proteins manufacturing industry.
In general this refers to all sequences in excess of those that can be manufactured from constituent Amino_Acids, and in quantities exceeding those generated by chemical means alone; Peptide Synthesis.
Proteins are usually extracted from biological material and purified prior to sale. This category is for industrial manufacture of natural proteins (non-GMO), in which the genetic material of the source has not been altered.

Enzymes

Sites exclusively about enzymes for biotherapeutic or other medical use should be submitted to links or a sub-category of Biopharmaceuticals.
Sites for enzymes sold in small quantities for scientific use may be submitted to the appropriate Biochemistry and Molecular Biology category instead.
(Duplicate submissions risk deletion).

Sites representing the Enzymes manufacturing industry.
In general this refers to all catalytic proteins and extracts from biological sources.
Enzymes are usually extracted from bacterial or cell culture, cadaver or plant material, and purified prior to sale. This category is for manufacture of enzymes for use in industries such as textiles, biotechnology, and consumer goods such as washing powder.
