Reference Guidelines
References should clearly identify the original contributor to
the work being cited. The accuracy of the references is the
responsibility of the author. Because subscribers to the Web edition
of the Journal are now able to click on the "CAS" tag following each
reference to retrieve the corresponding CASabstract, reference
accuracy is critical.
Textual references should be cited by number (in italics) in
order of appearance and put in the text in parentheses. Citations in
the reference list at the end of the manuscript should be arranged
and numbered (1., 2., etc.) in order of appearance.
Please follow the punctuation pattern given in these examples:
- Wegner, A. (1979) Equilibrium study of the actin-tropomyosin
interaction, J. Mol. Biol. 131, 839-853.
- Kossiakoff, A. A., and Spencer, S. A. (1981) Direct
determination of the protonation states of aspartic acid-102 and
histidine-57 in the tetrahedral intermediate of the serine
proteases: neutron structure of trypsin, Biochemistry 20,
6462-6474.
- Johnson, G. L., Mac Andrew, V. I., and Pilch, P. F. (1981)
Identification of the glucagon receptor in rat liver membranes by
photoaffinity cross-linking, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A.
78, 875-878.
All references must include the complete title and inclusive
pagination. Titles of journals are abbreviated according to
Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index. Serial publications
such as Advances in Protein Chemistry, Methods in
Enzymology, and The Proteins should be listed in the same
form as journals.
References to chapters and monographs are listed as follows:
Fierke, C. A., and Hammes, G. G. (1996) Transient Kinetic Approaches
to Enzyme Mechanisms, in Contemporary Enzyme Kinetics and
Mechanism (Purich, D., Ed.) 2nd ed., pp 1-35, Academic Press,
New York.
Cite papers that have been accepted for publication as in press.
Papers that are in preparation or have been submitted but not yet
accepted should be cited in the text as unpublished experiments or
personal communications. The author must obtain written permission
to cite unpublished work of others or to use material taken directly
from a copyrighted publication.
