PROTEINS and PROTEOMICS One of the 10 Topical Journals of BBA BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA - PROTEINS AND PROTEOMICS One of the 10 topical journals of BBA AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK TABLE OF CONTENTS XXX . • Description p.1 • Audience p.1 • Impact Factor p.1 • Abstracting and Indexing p.2 • Editorial Board p.2 • Guide for Authors p.5 ISSN: 1570-9639 DESCRIPTION . BBA Proteins and Proteomics covers protein structure conformation and dynamics; protein folding; protein-ligand interactions; enzyme mechanisms, models and kinetics; protein physical properties and spectroscopy; and proteomics and bioinformatics analyses of protein structure, protein function, or protein regulation. The journal no longer considers manuscripts dealing with binding of compounds such as drugs or drug analogues to circulatory proteins such as serum albumin. These studies are better accommodated in journals dealing with drug design and development. Manuscripts must advance our insights into the molecular and mechanistic properties of proteins. Computational studies must generally be validated or complemented by experimental studies. Studies only consisting of computational work will not be considered unless they provide new theoretical insight that allows us to better understand or reinterpret surprising or unexpected experimental data. Comparative proteomics studies are generally not considered for review unless they provide specific insights into the structural and/or functional properties of individual proteins. Proteomics studies must also address properties of individual proteins and should as far as possible be validated by direct investigations of relevant identified proteins. Concise and comprehensive reviews of recent developments are considered for publication. However, authors are strongly advised to consult one of the Executive Editors before starting a review.

  • An Analysis of Journal Use by Structural Biologists with Applications for Journal Collection Development Decisions
    422 College & Research Libraries September 2001 An Analysis of Journal Use by Structural Biologists with Applications for Journal Collection Development Decisions Claudia Lascar and Loren D. Mendelsohn This paper defines and examines structural biology as a subdiscipline of molecular biology. Using bibliometric methodologies, it analyzes the publication and citation patterns of a sample group of structural biolo­ gists from multiple institutions. The citations analyzed covered a very large subject range, demonstrating the multidisciplinary nature of this subfield. The results were consistent with several models for journal selection. These models were used to compile a short list of specialized titles supporting structural biology. Although the research was performed on a relatively small group of local researchers, it has broader applica­ tions for other institutions attempting to develop similar collections. n December 1998, several re­ • They had to be familiar to these search institutions in New same scientists (i.e., at least some of the York State formed a consor­ resources had to be materials that the sci­ tium to promote research in entists were already using at their home protein and nucleic acid structure.1 The institutions).
