Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to celebration of the first impact factor (4.694) of the open-access journal Biomolecules. Biomolecules has entered the ranking in the ‘Biochemistry & Molecular Biology’ category at 58 of 298 (80.70%, Q1). This achievement is a great one, and we are very thankful to everyone who has supported and contributed to Biomolecules over the past eight and a half years and who has brought us to this success. In fact, this accomplishment is a reflection of the great efforts of the journal’s managing team, Editors, Associate Editors, Editors-in-Chief of our Sections, Editorial Board Members, and, of course, reviewers, who have provided timely and high-quality feedback to authors. We have seen a steady increase in the number of great articles that has caused a steady increase in and broadening of our readership. Therefore, we would like to thank all authors for their confidence and trust in the journal, their belief in the journal’s sustainability and forthcoming success, their inspirational and exciting manuscripts, and for all their help, efforts, and contributions to Biomolecules, which have established our journal as an international interdisciplinary forum for biological molecules research.
This Special Issue covers all topics related to biogenic substances and their biological functions, structures, interactions with other molecules, and microenvironment and biological systems.
We look forward to receiving research papers and reviews from scientists in academia, biotech, and pharma who are focused on unravelling the mechanisms underlying the functions of biological molecules.
Dr. Vladimir N. Uversky
Guest Editor
