International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

Maintains enzyme names and EC classification through its nomenclature committee, in consultation with the joint IUPAC-IUBMB commission. Classification describes the reaction an enzyme catalyses; the list requires direct experimental evidence for a proposed reaction. A name or EC number does not establish an enzyme product’s purity, activity in a new process or approval for use. Geography: International nomenclature; the checked web edition is hosted at Queen Mary University of London, United Kingdom.
