I have this list of abbreviations and everything works fine except for pcrs and ip3. I tried to change \ce{IP3} to ip3 but it doesn't change place. I also tried to change or erase pcrs but I get an error and I get an empty line. Can someone help me with these exceptions to make my list alphabetically ordered?

List part 1: list part 1

list part 2: list part 2

when trying to remove pcr: when trying to remove pcr

    Please, make a compilable example from \documentclass to \end{document}. Nobody has your dissertation package, by the way. – egreg Dec 07 '20 at 23:25

    The reason that "IP3" is listed first is because the sort argument begins with \ce, which will sort before the regular alphabetical listing. This argument needs a separate sort field; I don't know offhand how to provide that. Similarly "RT-PCR" has a sort field pcrs so it will sort with "P". Look for items where the sort field is different from the string to be listed. – barbara beeton Dec 08 '20 at 04:44
  • Did you run makeglossaries again? Because if you change the name of an entry and recompile, the name will change but the ordering will not. Running makeglossaries takes care of the alphabetical sorting. – cktai Dec 08 '20 at 09:29

You can use:

\newacronym{ip3}{IP$_3$}{inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate}

or

\newacronym{ip3}{IP\textsubscript{3}}{inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate}

if you want the subscript to be bold.
