Journal Of Molecular Recognition

Journal Title：Journal Of Molecular Recognition

Journal of Molecular Recognition (JMR) publishes original research papers and reviews describing substantial advances in our understanding of molecular recognition phenomena in life sciences, covering all aspects from biochemistry, molecular biology, medicine, and biophysics. The research may employ experimental, theoretical and/or computational approaches.

The focus of the journal is on recognition phenomena involving biomolecules and their biological / biochemical partners rather than on the recognition of metal ions or inorganic compounds. Molecular recognition involves non-covalent specific interactions between two or more biological molecules, molecular aggregates, cellular modules or organelles, as exemplified by receptor-ligand, antigen-antibody, nucleic acid-protein, sugar-lectin, to mention just a few of the possible interactions. The journal invites manuscripts that aim to achieve a complete description of molecular recognition mechanisms between well-characterized biomolecules in terms of structure, dynamics and biological activity. Such studies may help the future development of new drugs and vaccines, although the experimental testing of new drugs and vaccines falls outside the scope of the journal. Manuscripts that describe the application of standard approaches and techniques to design or model new molecular entities or to describe interactions between biomolecules, but do not provide new insights into molecular recognition processes will not be considered. Similarly, manuscripts involving biomolecules uncharacterized at the sequence level (e.g. calf thymus DNA) will not be considered.

《分子识别杂志》（JMR）发表原创研究论文和评论，描述我们对生命科学中分子识别现象的理解的重大进展，涵盖生物化学、分子生物学、医学和生物物理学的各个方面。研究可能采用实验、理论和/或计算方法。

该期刊的重点是涉及生物分子及其生物/生化伙伴的识别现象，而不是金属离子或无机化合物的识别。分子识别涉及两个或多个生物分子、分子聚集体、细胞模块或细胞器之间的非共价特异性相互作用，例如受体-配体、抗原-抗体、核酸-蛋白质、糖-凝集素，仅举几例可能的相互作用。该期刊邀请旨在从结构、动力学和生物活性方面全面描述已充分表征的生物分子之间的分子识别机制的稿件。此类研究可能有助于未来新药和疫苗的开发，尽管新药和疫苗的实验测试不属于该期刊的范围。描述标准方法和技术在设计或建模新分子实体或描述生物分子之间相互作用方面的应用，但未提供分子识别过程的新见解的稿件将不予考虑。同样，涉及序列水平上未表征的生物分子（例如小牛胸腺 DNA）的稿件将不予考虑。

Journal Of Molecular Recognition创刊于1988年，由John Wiley and Sons Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖生物 - 生化与分子生物学全领域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所属细分领域中专业影响力一般，过审相对较易，如果您文章质量佳，选择此期刊，发表机率较高。平均审稿速度 较慢,6-12周 ，影响因子指数2.3，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
