Abstract
Presently described is a formal language for describing the function of biochemical networks. Because it is a language, it includes a method of parsing, or understanding the language, which is a highly complex recursive algorithm. This formal language, the Cell Language, is described both informally, so that it may be written, and formally, so that it may be parsed. The Cell Language makes it possible to model all the interactions in a cell in a single diagram, with only a few representations of each molecule. The notation is compact and modular, in the sense that complex interactions composed of many subparts may be annotated with the same symbols as the simplest interactions composed of individual molecules or genes.
