REPORT FORM FOR AN ENZYME NOT CURRENTLY INCLUDED IN "ENZYME NOMENCLATURE"

The Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (NC-IUBMB) in association with the Joint Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (JCBN) updates the Enzyme List bimonthly. New enzymes undergo a two-month public-review process before being incorporated into the official Enzyme List and these enzymes can be found at http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/newenz.html. The assistance of the biochemical community is sought in the task of suggesting and reviewing enzyme entries. This form can be used to draw the attention of the editor to enzymes and other catalytic entities missing from this list. It would be most helpful if you could send pdf versions of the references cited to .

Another form is available to report errors or updates in existing entries.
