Statement on the nomenclature of dog C4 allotypes
Abstract:
As a collaborative work of three laboratories the polymorphism of the canine fourth complement component (C4) was studied in a total of 131 unrelated dogs from different breeds and mongrels. Using high voltage electrophoresis followed by an immunoblotting technique, we detected eight distinct variants. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of canine C4 showed an additional heterogeneity of the alpha and gamma chains which resulted in a total of 11 variants in the population studied. So that more precise information concerning the respective C4 allotypes will be available, a nomenclature is proposed designating not only the migration pattern of the C4 variants in agarose gels but also the heterogeneity of the C4 chains observed in SDS-PAGE.

IUPAC Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acids
For acyclic saturated monocarboxylic acids, the longest hydrocarbon chain containing the –COOH carbon is identified as the parent chain. Then, the last -e of the parent hydrocarbon name is replaced with a suffix -oic acid.
Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
