Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the recent past, comprehensive studies on systems biology integrated approaches have yielded answers to that have allowed one to understand various biological processes. From integrating multi-layer ‘omic’ data to target identification, a host of molecular mechanisms at the systems level has been applied. With the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, understanding complex biological systems has not only become easy but has also enabled one to ascertain biological functions at the organism level. In this process, a lot of focus has been on regulatory systems genomic approaches inherent to biomolecules, specifically, protein–protein interactions and protein–DNA interactions. This has further helped researchers to construct integrative genome-phenome approaches besides exploring non-coding RNA-protein interactions for the development of heuristic models to help strengthen experiments and therapeutic models to ascertain diseasome studies. Inferring bona fide systems genomic approaches, however, is a major bottleneck. In this proposed call, we invite authors to contribute to this research topic, focusing on (but not limited to) the following:
(a) Sequence–structure–functional genomics approaches to ascertain the multi-omics data
(b) Shared pathways and mechanisms to understand diseasome and phenome-interactome networks
(c) Non-coding RNA -protein interactions and systems networks
(d) Machine learning-based approaches for systems biology
(e) Gene ontology, classification, and precision medicine

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 special issue 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. Biomolecules is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
