Abstract
SYBYL Line Notation (SLN) is an ASCII language used to represent chemi cal structures, including common organic molecules, macromolecules, po lymers, and combinatorial libraries. SLN is also used to express subst ructural (2D) queries and includes a complete facility for Markush rep resentation. This concise language is ideal for database storage of ch emical entities as well as for network communication of structures and queries.
