| Notes |
| (1) | Attention is drawn to Notes (1) to (3) following the title of class C12. [3,4] |
| (2) | Therapeutic activity of single-cell proteins or enzymes is further classified in subclass A61P. [7] |
| (3) | In this subclass, it is desirable to add the indexing codes of subclass C12R. The indexing codes should be linked. [6] |
