Protein, RNA, and Genome Structure Prediction

Dear Colleagues,

Significant progress has been observed in the protein structure prediction field in the recent years. It is partly due to effective usages of machine learning methods including deep learning, which made substantial improvement in many steps for the structure prediction, such as inter-residue contact and distance prediction. Keeping pace with protein structure prediction, there are many important developments achieved in related areas, such as protein-protein docking, RNA structure prediction, and 3D Genome prediction. This special issue is to capture the new exciting developments in these structure prediction fields.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
