Current Research in Structural Biology

Aims & Scope

Current Research in Structural Biology (CRSB) is a new primary research, gold open access (OA) journal from Elsevier.

CRSB publishes exclusively original research articles and short communications that cover all aspects of the molecular structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules.

CRSB is a peer-reviewed OA journal and upon acceptance all articles are permanently and freely available.

It is a companion to the highly regarded review journal Current Opinion in Structural Biology (2020 CiteScore, 12.7) and is part of the Current Opinion and Research (CO+RE) suite of journals.

All CO+RE journals leverage the Current Opinion legacy-of editorial excellence, high-impact, and global reach-to ensure they are a widely read resource that is integral to scientists' workflow.

CRSB topics covered include: - Resolution Revolution in Cryo-EM - From Genomes to Protein Sequences and Topology - Multi-Protein Assemblies in Cell Signalling and Regulation - Folding, Binding and Implications for Drug Discovery - Membrane Protein Structures and Functions - Intrinsically Disordered Proteins - Single Molecule Studies and Kinetics - Nucleic Acids and their Protein Complexes - Macromolecular Machines - Theory and Simulation - New Constructs and Expression Of Proteins - Engineering and Design - Carbohydrate-Protein Interactions and Glycosylation - Biophysical and Molecular Biological Methods - Enzyme Catalysis.
