Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The primary focus of this Special Issue is to unravel how biomacromolecules, including proteins, nucleic acids and lipids, engage with one another and their environment at the molecular level. In this Special Issue, we are committed to showcasing essential and captivating studies that shed light on various interactions between biomacromolecules. Moreover, we extend the invitation for manuscripts exploring the multifaceted landscape of biomolecular structure and function, investigating topics such as protein folding and stability.
Beyond that, we are eager to embrace contributions highlighting innovations in biophysical techniques. These innovations not only facilitate, but also catalyse further advancements in this field of research. Your insights and groundbreaking work in these areas are not only valued, but are essential for continued progress in the field of biophysics.
We eagerly anticipate your valuable contributions to this Special Issue which promises to demonstrate the collaborative and pioneering spirit of our biophysical scientific community.
Dr. Ivo Crnolatac
Guest Editor
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.
