Acta Crystallographica Section F:Structural Biology Communications
Published by John Wiley & Sons
eISSN : 2053-230X
Abbreviation : Acta Crystallogr. Sect. F:structural Biology Commun.
Aims & Scope
Acta Crystallographica Section F is a rapid structural biology communications journal.
It aims to publish structural biology results of scientific significance and methods/software advances from all current and new structural biology techniques, including X-ray, neutron and electron crystallography, and also NMR spectroscopy, electron microscopy and SAXS.
Reporting of methods and results using computational approaches (such as molecular dynamics, quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics and DFT), when used in the context of structural data are also encouraged.
Communications on any aspect of structural biology, including experimental methods and techniques, structures determined using high-throughput methods or from iterative studies such as those used in the pharmaceutical industry, are welcomed by the journal.
Reported structures should be of macromolecules that have significant biological interest, or be significant improvements of previous structures in terms of resolution or precision.
Communications describing preliminary results on macromolecules or complexes (production and crystallization, preliminary spectra, biochemical characterisation, high-resolution images or similar) are also welcomed, but only on those with notable biological interest, likely to have novel folds, or if the method used to produce the preliminary results has novel aspects that may also be applicable to other macromolecules.
The journal offers the option of open access and all communications benefit from unlimited free use of colour illustrations and no page charges.
Authors are encouraged to submit multimedia content for publication with their articles.
Acta Cryst.
F has a dedicated online tool called publBio that is designed to make the preparation and submission of manuscripts easier for authors.
