Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Interactions between proteins and ligands support the whole of biological science. The subject of protein–ligand interactions, especially serum protein, is one of the most exciting subjects in modern science. Due to the physicochemical properties of studied substances, there are numerous methods and techniques used in order to analyse their structure–function relationships. Understanding such interactions is crucial for gaining a fundamental knowledge base relating to cellular behaviour. The field of protein–ligand interaction studies is at an auspicious stage of development, as well as being in a very active growth phase. The main goal of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for publishing research on protein–ligand interactions, by using useful multi-disciplinary techniques applied in laboratories worldwide for investigating the basic principles and practical applications, especially in the pharmaceutical and biomedical fields.

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. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
