Topical Collection Information
Dear Colleagues,
The collection of papers present in this anniversary issue of IJMS features some of the most interesting developments in the biochemistry field over the last decades. The huge progress made in genetics and cloning of genomes of many organisms, connected with the latest developments in structural biology and other biophysical techniques, made it possible to understand the structure and functions of many biological molecules involved in all life processes, from structural and catalytic proteins, to nucleic acids, as well as protein–protein and protein–nucleic acid complexes. This is crucial for designing tools to interfere with their function and many such molecules may become drugs or diagnostic tools. Although many of these phenomena are not yet completely understood, the significant progress that has been made is partly due to some of the crucial papers published in the bets biochemical journals, among which IJMS has strongly emerged. With the aim of stimulating a broad interest in this topic, I strongly urge scientists active in the field to read this interesting issue of the journal.
Prof. Dr. Claudiu T. Supuran

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 collection website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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.
