Terminology for sialic acids.

We write on behalf of the Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Biochemistry to comment on the proposal by Scott et al. (1982) to change the name of neuraminic acid to amino-sialosonic acid as a consequence of allotting the name sialose to a hypothetical 3-deoxynonulose. They further propose symbolizing sialose as Sia, sialosonic acid as SiaA, and aminosialosonic acid as SiaNA. W...

The folates are a group of heterocyclic compounds based on the 4-[(pteridin-6-ylmethyl)amino]benzoic acid skeleton conjugated with one or more L-glutamate units. The document is a revision of recommendations prepared by the IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature in 1964. The main changes are a consequence of the much greater information that now exists about the stereochemistry of fol...
