Method and apparatus for synthesizing biopolymers, such as polypeptides and polynucleotides. The apparatus includes plural reaction vessels in which subunit coupling to biopolymers in a particle suspension is carried out. The vessels are connected to common valuing structure for use in mixing the suspension and removing suspension liquid. In one embodiment, a robotic arm in the apparatus is operable to transfer reaction solution to the reaction vessels, and to transfer particle suspensions from the reaction vessels to a mixing vessel and back to the reaction vessels. The method can be used to produce preferably equi-molar amounts of different sequence biopolymers, such as polypeptides and polynucleotides.

Procédé et appareil servant à synthétiser des biopolymères, tels que polypeptides et polynucléotides. L'appareil comporte plusieurs cuves de réaction dans lesquelles on procède au couplage de sous-unités à des biopolymères dans une suspension de particules. Les cuves sont connectées à une structure de vannes commune qui est utilisée pour le mélange de la suspension et pour l'élimination du liquide de suspension. Dans une variante, un bras robotique de l'appareil sert à transférer la solution de réaction aux cuves de réaction, et à transférer les suspensions de particules des cuves de réaction à une cuve de mélange puis de nouveau aux cuves de réaction. Le procédé peut être utilisé pour produire des quantités, de préférence équimoléculaires, de biopolymères de séquences différentes, tels que polypeptides et polynucléotides.
