DEFINITION

Classification: 106/124.1

Proteinaceous material containing:

(under the class definition) Compositions which contain a polypeptide (polyamide) of more than 100, a-amino acid residues or of molecular weight of greater than 10,000, a naturally occurring material which has such polypeptide as one of its ingredients, or a chemical modification of such polypeptide.

(1) Note. A peptide (amide) bond is an amino bond between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another. [figure] [figure]

(2) Note. Examples of proteins included herein are chemically modified protein wherein the polypeptide chemical structure is preserved, chemically modified protein wherein part of the polypeptide chemical structure has been removed, chemically modified protein wherein part of the polypeptide chemical structure has been replaced, chemically modified protein wherein the polypeptide chemical structure is indeterminate, and plant- or animal-derived material which has protein as one of its ingredients.

(3) Note. The term "chemical modification" herein is intended to include the conjugation of a protein with a nonpeptide compound, the addition of simple chemical elements or compounds to the protein, the sundering of parts of a large protein molecule, and the treatment to deliberately change the secondary, tertiary or quaternary structure of a polypeptide.

(4) Note. The expression "organic compound" in this and indented subclasses corresponds to the class 260 class definition, i.e., compounds containing carbon, which are further characterized by the presence in a molecule thereof of (a) two carbon atoms bonded together, (b) one atom of carbon bonded to at least one atom of hydrogen or halogen, or (c) one atom of carbon bonded to at least one atom of nitrogen by a single or double bond, with the proviso that HCN, CN-CN, HNCO, HNCS, cyanamide, cyanogen halides, fulminic acid, metal carbides, and graphite are excluded from being organic compounds.

(5) Note. The term "carbohydrate or derivative" in this and indented subclasses corresponds to Class 536 subclass 1.1 definition; i.e., saccharide whose monomeric units are polyhydroxy mono-aldehydes or polyhydroxy mono-ketones, having the formula Cn(H2O)n (wherein n is five or six), or the corresponding cyclic hemiacetals thereof; or the reaction derivatives thereof in which the product is of indeterminate structure or the carbon skeleton and the carbonyl function or hemiacetal function of the saccharide unit are not destroyed.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS: 158.1, for compositions containing albumin or derivative thereof.

159.1, for compositions containing casein or derivative thereof.

160.1, for compositions containing gelatin or collagen or derivative thereof.

161.1, for compositions containing prolamine or derivative thereof.
