Hierarchical editing language for macromolecules
Appearance
The Hierarchical Editing Language for Macromolecules (HELM) is a method of describing complex biological molecules. It is a notation that is machine readable to render the composition and structure of peptides, proteins, oligonucleotides, and related small molecule linkers.[1]
HELM was developed by a consortium of pharmaceutical companies in what is known as the Pistoia Alliance.
