No. 1 primary research journal in Biophysics

Aims and Scope:
In January 2004 Nature Structural Biology was relaunched as Nature Structural & Molecular Biology to reflect a growing integration of structural and molecular studies. The journal places a strong emphasis on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying biological processes.

Specific areas include (but are not limited to) DNA replication; repair and recombination; chromatin structure and remodeling; transcription; translation; the folding, processing, transport and degradation of proteins and RNA; and signaling. Each issue also contains News and Views articles, Research Highlights and editorials that help place the primary research in a broader context.

Readership:

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology appeals to the international molecular, structural, biochemical and biophysical science community.
