Molecular BioSystems publishes high-quality chemical biology research with a particular focus on the interface between chemistry and the -omic sciences and systems biology. 

High visibility, fast publication and additional online features make Molecular BioSystems the ideal place to publish your research. 

Submit your work and you will benefit from: 

• A first-class professional service from dedicated editorial and production staff 
• High visibility - Abstracts cited in MEDLINE database 
• Rapid times to publication - acceptance to publication in under 20 days for papers 
• Fully electronic submission and manuscript tracking via ReSourCe 
• Articles enhanced to provide links from named compounds and scientific concepts in an electronic journal article to link through to electronic databases, download structures, or understand topics 
• New 3D visualisation feature for complex biomolecular structures as part of the Electronic Supplementary Information service 
• Hot articles are highlighted in RSC news supplements (Highlights in Chemical Science, Highlights in Chemical Technology and Highlights in Chemical Biology) and in the wider scientific press 
• No page charges, plus free colour where scientifically justified 
• Increased publication choices for authors via RSC Open Science
