Abstract

European Journal of BiochemistryVolume 53, Issue 1 p. 15-18 IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (CBN)Free Access Nomenclature of Quinones with Isoprenoid Side-Chains Recommendations, 19731 First published: April 1975 https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1432-1033.1975.tb04036.xCitations: 22 1At its meeting in April 1961, the IUPAC Commission for the Nomenclature of Biological Chemistry appointed a Subcommittee, consisting of K. Folkers, D.E., Green, O. Isler, C. Martius, R. A. Morton and E. C. Slater, to report on the standardization of the nomenclature of the quinones with an isoprenoid side-chain. The Subcommittee met once in April 1963, and otherwise carried out its activities by correspondence, In June 1964, it reported to the IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature, which adopted the report, with minor modifications, at its meeting in September 1964 and published it as Tentative Rules in 19653. The present Recommendations differ from the 1964 Tentative Rules3 principally in the deletion of the alternative Proposal II (see 3.3.1) from the latter. Comments on and suggestions for future revisions may be sent to any member of CBN2. Reprints of these Recommendations and of other Recommendations of the IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature2 may be obtained from W. E. Cohn, Director, NRC (U.S.A.)
