A searchable list of compounds is available. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/servlets/pageservlet?ptype=c&compID=c0001 http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/servlets/pageservlet?ptype=allcomps - In the Biochemical Periodic Tables, new entries were made for Curium (Cm), Niobium (Nb), Rhenium (Re) and Holmium (Ho). Some biological information is now available for almost all stable, non-noble-gas elements. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/ http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/periodic.html http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/elements/cm.html http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/elements/nb.html http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/elements/re.html http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/elements/ho.html - On the Useful Internet Resources page, the link for IUBMB-Nicholson Metabolic Maps, Minimaps and Animaps at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland has been updated. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/resources.html If you have comments on any aspect of the UM-BBD, please let us know.
