ANNUAL REVIEW OF BIOCHEMISTRY Vol. VII

---

In the year that has elapsed since publication of the fourth volume of the Review there have been no changes in editorial or publication policy. In consequence, the need of a preface to the present volume might well be questioned were it not for the fact that such introduc- tory paragraphs permit us to express the sense of appreciation that we feel to those whose labors and cordial suggestions are responsible for the volume.

If we may be permitted to speak for those who use the Review, more than a word of thanks must be conveyed to the contributors. Almost every field of biochemistry continues to receive extensive in- quiry and the number of papers calling for careful appraisal steadily increases. Selection of the papers from which a review is to be woven, judicious weighing of the evidence presented, and synthesis of the material into a readable survey is a most difficult task. Perhaps the most unhappy feature is the necessity of leaving unmentioned a con- siderable number of excellent papers which temporarily must be placed aside because of the exigencies of space or because they pertain to sub- jects beyond the limits of the survey. The co-operation of the con- tributors has been so cordial and their attention to the exacting duties of a reviewer so complete that we wish most sincerely to endorse the

sentiments of gratitude expressed by subscribers. We continue to be indebted to the readers of the Review who, in increasing numbers, assist us with suggestions with respect to author- ship, subjects appropriate for survey, and other matters which bear upon the quality and utility of the Reviews.

May we also express our gratitude to those who have been good enough to provide contributors with reprints of their published papers. In many instances, especially in the case of reports appearing in the less accessible journals, these reprints have been of the greatest assistance.
