Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The simulation of important processes in biomedicine and biotechnology using computational methods has become a well-established field in recent years. We can simulate motions associated with the function of key macromolecules in cellular processes. Using molecular dynamics systems, we can study the effect of a mutation that causes a rare disease or a carcinogenic process on the structure and/or function of a macromolecule. We can also design molecules with the ability to act as antimicrobial, antiviral or anticancer agents. All these processes, as well as the methodology that makes them possible, are welcome in this Special Issue of IJMS.
Dr. Paulino Gómez-Puertas

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
