‘Exploring proteins and their interactions’ topical collection

13 Apr 2022

We’re excited to share with you our new topical collection on “Exploring proteins and their interactions” for RSC Chemical Biology, highlighting the excellent work published so far in the journal in this exciting area of research.

The study of proteins, their structure and function, interactions and roles in disease is a vast topic encompassing a range of different approaches, techniques and tools. Work in this collection reflects the variety and scope of this area of chemical biology research, including studies on the mechanisms of aromatases, coronavirus host-cell interactions, the mapping of epitopes, and much more.

Explore some of the papers in the collection below, and see the full collection here:

Call for papers – Chemical Proteomics

10 Feb 2022

RSC Chemical Biology is delighted to welcome papers for its latest online themed collection on ‘Chemical Proteomics’, guest edited by Dr Keriann Backus (UCLA, USA) and Dr Stephan Hacker (Leiden University, Netherlands).

Scope

RSC Chemical Biology is delighted to welcome submissions on applications of chemoproteomics to study the targets and off-targets of covalent and non-covalent inhibitors, to study the reactivity of amino acids in the proteome, to develop new reactive groups for photocrosslinkers, covalent inhibitors and protein labeling as well as to study post-translational modifications and cofactor binding proteome-wide.

The deadline for submissions is 30 June 2022.

Submit to the collection now!

Promotion of the collection is scheduled for winter 2022, but articles will be published online as soon as they’re accepted.

Authors are welcome to submit original research in the form of a Communication or Full Paper.  Articles can be submitted via our website: rsc.li/rsc-chembio. We would be grateful if upon submission you would be able to mention that your manuscript is intended for this themed collection in the “notes to the editor” box.

Please note that before a final decision is made, all submissions are subject to an initial assessment to confirm the manuscript’s suitability for full peer review.

 If you have any questions about the journal or the collection, please contact the editorial office via chembio-rsc@rsc.org.

With kind regards,
