Abstract
Rules for Abbreviations and Symbols of Chemical Names of Special Interest in Biological Chemistry"(2)).They sought to reconcile the needs of the protein chemist, i.e. indication of amino-acid sequences, with those of persons concerned more with the chemical reactions of proteins and the synthesis of polypeptides, i.e. the need for conveying more detailed chemical information in abbreviated form.Recent progress in the field of peptide synthesis and in the chemical modification of proteins has made necessary a revision of these "Tentative Rules.
