The journal selects those manuscripts which merit urgent publication because they report novel findings of wide biological significance. A guide to predicting protein 3D structure. Headings include sequence database searching, domain assignment, multiple sequence alignment, comparative or homology modelling, secondary structure prediction, fold recognition, analysis of fold families and alignment of secondary structures. The primary criterion for judging the acceptability of a manuscript is its originality and scientific importance. Manuscripts are invited from all fields of biology, pathology, cellular and molecular biology.
Subscription is required.
Additional resources include 3D images, information on the biomedical or technological relevance of the peptidases, statistical data, and a chart showing which major groups of organisms have been found to contain which families and clans of peptidases. Includes links to protein and DNA data analysis servers which provide sequence and structural homology searches etc. Some have only subscription information online, others have tables of contents, abstracts or full text. Information available includes the function and structure of a protein, its post-translational modifications and variants. Technical Tips Online Molecular biology techniques resource which contains peer-reviewed contributions from authors and a range of product and company information.
