Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: macroenzymes
Etymology: From macro- + enzyme.
Senses: examples: text: Macroenzymes are serum enzymes that have a higher molecular mass than the corresponding enzyme normally found in serum under physiologic or pathophysiologic conditions. Although no evidence convincingly indicates that macroenzymes cause disease or necessitate treatment, some patients with immunoglobulin-complexed enzyme disorders have previously been reported to have associated autoimmune diseases or malignant lesions. To address this issue, we reviewed the medical records of 42 patients in whom a macroenzyme had been detected during assessment at the Mayo Clinic between 1986 and 1990.
ref: 1993, Galasso PJ, Litin SC, O'Brien JF, “The macroenzymes: a clinical review”, in Mayo Clinic Proceedings, volume 68, number 4, →DOI, →PMID, pages 349–354:
glosses: An enzyme of macromolecular size due to unusual biopolymerization or immune complexing, such as when a normal enzyme is protein-bound, typically by immunoglobulins (antibodies); macroenzymes by themselves are not always pathophysiologic or pathogenic, but their occurrence is increased in certain diseases (their formation is encouraged by some pathogenetic processes).

She was found to have an unexplained increase in serum amylase and lipase activities since 1996. […] In the situation of atypical clinical features associated with hyperamylasemia and hyperlipasemia, the possibility of macroenzymes should be considered.
ref: 2000, Goto H, Wakui H, Komatsuda A, Imai H, Miura AB, Fujita K, “Simultaneous macroamylasemia and macrolipasemia in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus in remission”, in Internal Medicine, volume 39, number 12, →PMID, pages 1115–1118:
