International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB) is an international non-governmental organization active in the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology. Founded in 1955 as the International Union of Biochemistry, in 2008, it comprised 76 member countries.
The IUBMB Nomenclature Committee (often in conjunction with the IUPAC) publishes standards for biochemical nomenclature and molecular biology, including enzyme nomenclature (eg EC), and develops and standardises units used in these fields of science (eg, enzyme unit). IUBMB also organizes the Congress of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology every three years, and sponsors other conferences, symposia, educational activities and lectures. IUBMB is also associated with academic journals such as Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education (formerly Biochemical Education), BioEssays, BioFactors, Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, IUBMB Life, Molecular Aspects of Medicine, and Trends in Biochemical Sciences. >
