Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the process of creating protein polymers. The process of creating free ubiquitin chains, compounds composed of a large number of ubiquitin monomers. These chains are not conjugated to a protein. The process of creating dynamin polymers, compounds composed of a large number of dynamin monomers. Dynamin polymers form around lipid tubes and contribute to membrane fission. Assembly of intermediate filaments by the addition of component monomers to a filament. Polymerization of intermediate filament proteins results from interactions among several distinct binding sites on the constituent proteins. Nuclear lamin head-to-tail polymers arise from one such interaction. Deletion analysis localized the binding sites to the ends of the rod domain that are highly conserved among all intermediate filament proteins. Data indicate that one type of interaction in intermediate filament protein polymerization is the longitudinal binding of dimers via the conserved end segments of the coiled-coil rod domain. The addition of tubulin heterodimers to one or both ends of a microtubule. The process of creating protein polymers, compounds composed of a large number of component monomers; polymeric proteins may be made up of different or identical monomers. Polymerization occurs by the addition of extra monomers to an existing poly- or oligomeric protein. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a protein complex. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the process of creating protein polymers. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the process of creating protein polymers. Assembly of actin filaments by the addition of actin monomers to a filament. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a protein complex, occurring at the level of an individual cell. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of macromolecules to form a complex, carried out at the cellular level.
