Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As follows from the title, this Special Issue, “ Feature Papers in “Molecular Microbiology and Immunology” Section (2026, 2027)”, aims to collect high-quality research articles and review articles in all fields of molecular microbiology and immunology. Papers focusing on the following research in molecular microbiology and immunology are especially welcome: regulation of gene expression in microorganisms, control of DNA replication, mechanisms of mutagenesis and DNA repair, DNA recombination processes, all aspects of RNA biochemistry and biology, immunological response of higher organisms to microbial infections, and molecular mechanism of the interactions between microbial cells and viruses and the immune system of the host.
Since this Special Issue aims to illustrate, through selected works, pioneering research in molecular microbiology and immunology, we encourage Editorial Board Members of the Molecular Microbiology and Immunology Section of Microorganisms to contribute papers reflecting the latest progress in their research field or to invite relevant experts and colleagues to do so.
Prof. Dr. Grzegorz Wegrzyn
Guest Editor
