About the journal
DNA REPAIR
(Formerly: Mutation Research - DNA Repair)
provides a forum for the comprehensive coverage of cellular responses to DNA damage in living cells.
The journal publishes original observations on genetic, cellular, biochemical and molecular aspects of DNA repair, mutagenesis, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and other biological responses to cells exposed to genomic insult, as well as their relationship to human diseases.
Original full-length papers are published monthly. In addition, the journal will publish a smaller number of peer-reviewed Brief Reports on original research findings of special interest, as well as invited Mini-reviews on selected topics that provide 'state-of-the-art' synopses of cellular responses to DNA damage. Book reviews and meeting reports will be regularly featured and the Journal welcomes Correspondence from the scientific community, especially as they relate to papers previously published in the journal. These are handled directly by the Editor-in-Chief and may be accompanied by responses solicited from relevant individuals.
Instructions to Authors
All articles should be submitted with four copies (one original and three copies, and four sets of original illustrations) to one of the Receiving Editors (see below for addresses).
TYPES OF ARTICLES
DNA REPAIR provides a forum for the comprehensive coverage of cellular responses to DNA damage in living cells.
The journal publishes original observations on genetic, cellular, biochemical and molecular aspects of DNA repair, mutagenesis, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and other biological responses to cells exposed to genomic insult, as well as their relationship to human diseases. Original full-length papers are published monthly. In addition, the journal will publish a smaller number of peer-reviewed Brief Reports on original research findings of special interest, as well as invited Mini-reviews on selected topics that provide 'state-of-the-art' synopses of cellular responses to DNA damage. Book reviews and meeting reports will be regularly featured and the Journal welcomes Correspondence from the scientific community, especially as they relate to papers previously published in the journal. These are handled directly by the Editor-in-Chief and may be accompanied by responses solicited from relevant individuals.
General arrangement of papers Papers should be in English, typewritten, and double-spaced. Final versions should be accompanied by a diskette (see `Electronic manuscripts' below). They should include key words (3-6 words or short phrases) and an abstract of up to 300 words. The Introduction should summarise the research problem and the pertinent findings. The text may be divided into sections such as Materials and methods, Results, Discussion, etc. All main sections should be numbered. In papers mentioning chemicals, authors are requested to include CAS registry numbers.
Preparation of text Each manuscript should have a separate title page which includes only the title, authors' full names and complete addresses of academic or professional affiliations; the author to whom proofs and correspondence should be addressed should be indicated by an asterisk, and a telephone/fax number and e-mail address included.
Figures should be submitted in triplicate as unmounted glossy prints, suitable for reproduction either across a single column (76 mm) or across a whole page (160 mm); the maximum height is 206 mm. The figures and the lettering should be in proportion and large enough to allow for reduction before printing. All figures should have a legend, typed on a separate page. Reproduction in colour is possible: contact the Managing Editor on how to apply for one of the 30 free colour pages available annually.
Tables should also be typed with double line spacing and have a heading.
References. Only papers using the numbered reference system will be accepted, i.e. references are numbered by order of citation in the text. Journal titles should be abbreviated to conform with Chemical Abstracts Bibliographic Guide for Authors and Editors 1974.
Cost of Colour Reproduction. Reproduction of colour figures in review articles and special issues is free of charge.

Nomenclature. Authors are requested to adopt the nomenclature system for human gene mutations recommended by the HUGO MDI Nomenclature Working Group. Guidelines for this system can be found at http://journals.wiley.com/1059-7794/nomenclature.html.
USE BACK BUTTON TO RETURN TO THIS PAGE, NOT "Return to Instructions to Authors"
Submission of a manuscript will be held to imply that it contains original work and that it has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere. It also implies the transfer of the Copyright from the author to the publisher.
Electronic manuscripts have the advantage that there is no need for the rekeying of text, thereby avoiding the possibility of introducing errors and resulting in reliable and fast delivery of proofs. For the initial submission of manuscripts for consideration, hard copies are sufficient. For the processing of accepted papers, electronic versions are required. After final acceptance, your disk plus one final and exactly matching printed version should be submitted together. Please do not split the article into separate files (title page as one file, text as another, etc.). Ensure that the letter `l' and digit `1' (also letter `O' and digit `0') have been used properly, and structure your article (tabs, indents, etc.) consistently. Characters not available on your wordprocessor (Greek letters, mathematical symbols, etc.) should not be left open but indicated by a unique code (e.g., gralpha, @, #, etc., for the Greek letter - ). Such codes should be used consistently throughout the entire text. Please make a list of such codes and provide a key. Do not allow your wordprocessor to introduce word splits and do not use a `justified' layout. Please adhere strictly to the general instructions on style/arrangement and, in particular, the reference style of the journal. It is important that the file saved is in the native format of the wordprocessor program used. Label the disk with the name of the computer and word processing package used, your name, and the name of the file on the disk. After final acceptance, your disk plus one, final, printed and exactly matching version (as a printout) should be submitted together to the accepting editor. It is important that the file on disk and the printout are identical. Both will then be forwarded by the Editor to Elsevier. Further information may be obtained from the Publisher.
Proofs are automatically sent to the corresponding author except for Accelerated Publications and Current Issues which are faxed. Only printer's errors may be corrected, no changes in or additions to the edited manuscript will be accepted. To return corrected proofs by courier service, please send to: Log-in Department, Mutation Research, Elsevier Science B.V., Sara Burgerhartstraat 21, 1055 KV Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Elsevier will do everything possible to get your article corrected and published as quickly and accurately as possible. Therefore, it is important to ensure that all of your corrections are sent back to us in one communication. Subsequent corrections will not be possible, so please ensure your first sending is complete.
Offprints 25 offprints of each article are sent to the author(s) free of charge. Additional offprints can be ordered by the author(s). Offprint requests after publication will be subject to an extra charge.

Guide to Online Submission
Introduction
Welcome to the Elsevier online submission service. This service has been designed to be as easy as possible to use. Authors can upload their article as a LaTeX, Microsoft® (MS) Word®/I> or WordPerfect®/I>. It is also possible to submit an article in PostScript or Adobe®Acrobat®PDF format, but if the article is accepted it will be necessary to send in the original source files.
The system generates an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of the article which is used for the reviewing process. Authors, Reviewers and Editors send and receive all correspondence by e-mail and no paper correspondence is necessary. Note: articles are converted into PDF for the review process but may be edited after acceptance to follow journal standards.
What to submit?
Journal specific guidelines on types of article accepted and how to prepare your article can be found in the Author Gateway journal page, in the Guide for Authors.
File Formats
Word Processor Formats
Please submit your article as a file in one of the following formats:
- MS Word 6
- MS Word 97
- MS Word 98 for Macintosh®
- MS Word 2000
- WordPerfect 6.1 or higher
- RTF
Important notes on word processor file preparation
- For review purposes you must submit your article as a SINGLE FILE. You need to embed all your figures and tables within this file.
- Fonts: Please choose Times, Times New Roman, Courier, Arial or Helvetica fonts as much as possible. Other fonts (e.g. Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK) character fonts) may cause the PDF conversion to fail. If your manuscript does not correctly convert to PDF, replace the font(s) where necessary and try again.
- Most formatting codes will be removed or replaced on processing your article so there is no need for you to apply excessive layout styling. In addition, avoid options such as automatic word breaking, justified layout, double columns, automatic paragraph numbering (especially for numbered references). However, do use bold face, italic, subscripts, superscripts, etc.
- For the production of your article you will also have to submit your graphic files separately as high resolution graphics. (See also the section on Electronic Artwork below.)
LaTex
For general instructions on how to prepare an article using LaTeX, see the Latex file guidelines. In addition, please note the following:
- Include all your graphics in the LaTeX file, e.g. with the includegraphics from the graphics package.
- Submit any special class (or style) files and other macro files with your article. We are using an up-to-date TeX installation (TeXLive5d), so you need not include any of the standard packages.
PDF
If possible, please submit the original LaTeX or word processor files: this website will take care of converting them into a PDF file.
If you wish to create your own PDF, download the ES_review.joboptions to the "Settings" folder of your Acrobat Distiller and choose the "ES_review" joboptions before converting your file.
Note: This joboptions file is for Adobe Distiller v4.05 and later. If you are still working with an older version, or if you need more help, see. PDF settings .
PDF Settings
Where to put the .joboptions file?
Here is how you can find the folder where Adobe Distiller keeps its option files.
i. Open Adobe Distiller
ii. Choose Settings | Job Options...
iii. Click on Save as...
iv. The Save in: box shows you the name and the location of the folder where you should save ES_review.joboptions.
v. Click Cancel twice to leave the Job Options screen.
Distiller version 4
The following screen shots will help you set up your Adobe Distiller for the creation of a usable PDF file. If you are using an older version of Distiller, choose settings as closely as possible to the ones shown in the screenshots.
File naming
To avoid confusion, please make sure your file has a short, descriptive name. Short means less than 30 characters and descriptive means names like figure1.tif and smith-article-version1.doc.
Electronic Artwork
For the production of your paper in the journal we need high-resolution graphic files in either TIFF or EPS. For information on how to prepare your artwork for electronic submission, see http://authors.elsevier.com/artwork.
