The Viral Proteomics: Decoding the Proteome of Pathogenic Viruses

Dear Colleagues,

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics, a cutting-edge molecular technique, has emerged as a promising biotechnological tool in the post-genomic era, particularly in systems biology. Proteomics, by focusing on proteins as the “workhorses” of life, has revolutionized our perception of viruses by providing comprehensive qualitative and quantitative information on the protein composition of single cells, and on entire ecosystems. Consequently, proteomics has become an indispensable tool in virology for providing insight into the molecular drivers of viral infections in host cells and pathogenesis in plant, animals, etc.

This Special Issue on “Viral Proteomics: Decoding the Proteome of Pathogenic Viruses" will focus on all aspects of proteomics and viral disease. We welcome you to submit your original research paper, recent reviews, and commentaries on this topic

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. Microorganisms 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.
