Description
Protoplasma, an International Journal of Cell Biology, is specializing in the area between structural and molecular analysis of biological systems from gene expression to the subcellular and supracellular levels. The journal is pleased to consider original manuscripts dealing with structural and macromolecular cell biology of protists, fungi, plants, and animals, as well as prokaryotes. Appropriate topics include biogenesis, dynamics, and energetics of membrane compartments; targeting and trafficking of macromolecules; cellular dynamics, intracellular transport, and whole-cell locomotion; structure, dynamics, and molecular components of the cytoskeleton; signalling and regulatory cascades; the cell cycle and cell-to-cell communication. Also considered are papers concerned with molecular cytology; experimental and quantitative ultrastructure; cell and tissue development, pathogenesis, cancer; and environmental aspects of cell biology. In addition to regular research articles, expedited Rapid Communications, and comprehensive Review Articles, Protoplasma publishes succinct presentations of hypotheses, discoveries, or opportunities at the cutting edge of cell biology research under the headings "New Ideas in Cell Biology", and "Focus on Cellular Biochemistry". A special section, "Classics Revisited", is provided for items of historical significance to the development of cell biology.
