The cache title will make sense once you make it to the end. To get there, don't go to the posted coordinates, rather convert each structure to a number and solve (consulting a biochemist should be a big help):

N 40 [A/1000]
W 105 [B/1000]

I was able to solve the puzzle by consulting my sister who has taken some biochemistry classes. Took a few minutes to make the find but not too long. Container and log are still in good condition! TFTC

Stopped by to check on things and am happy to report it's right where it's supposed to be.

Found this cache with Pathfinder33. We've been laboring over it for a few months in anticipation of the upcoming GeoWoodstock14er. Through combined efforts, and thankful I was a cell biology major we were able to decipher this one! Loved the final location and had an overall blast dusting of that knowledge in the back of our heads! SL. TFTC.

One of the main goals of the trip to GeoWoodstock was to nab a few caches to fill my D/T grid. This was one of those caches. I had been studying the puzzle for about a month before my B in general chemistry paid for the cost of the 4 hour class. I made a quick note to the owner to check my answer. I was heat broken when I read his reply that I was SO close, but on the right track so he didn't think I needed a hint. With some renewed faith in my puzzle ability I came up with a right answer a few days later. Then the long wait for the mega event. So today before we left the Denver area we swung by and grabbed this one. Cache is in great shape! TFTC!

Thanks for the fun puzzle and guidance in solving! Enjoyed the nice walk to the final. The final location is nicely themed with the puzzle. Went to grad school here long ago. It's still a beautiful campus.
