This paper arises out of joint work with F. R. Cohen and F. P. Peterson [5, 2, 3] on the joint structure of infinite loop spaces QX. The homology of such a space is operated on by both the Dyer-Lashof algebra, R, and the opposite of the Steenrod algebra A∗. We describe a convenient summary of these actions; let M be the algebra which is R ⊗ A∗ as a vector space and where multiplication Q1 ⊗ PJ. Q1’ ⊗ PJ’∗ is given by applying the Nishida relations in the middle and then the appropriate Adem relations on the ends. Then M is a Hopf algebra which acts on the homology of infinite loop spaces.
