About the journal
|
The Journal of Membrane Biology will publish papers on the nature, the structure, genesis and functions of biological membranes, and on the physics and chemistry of artificial membranes with a bearing on biomembranes. It will publish articles dealing with plasma membranes (including cell surfaces and accessory surface structures, such as bacterial or plant cell walls); intracellular membranes (e.g., membranes of organelles, nuclei, mitochondria, chloroplasts, vesicles, intracellular reticula); membrane organs (e.g., skin, urinary bladder, gut, kidney, lung); biomembrane models (e.g., monolayers, bilayers, synthetic membranes); and general considerations of two-dimensional biological structures . Suitable topics are chemical and physical structure; immunochemical properties and fingerprinting; colloid and surface chemistry; transport and secretory functions, including natural and artificial transport carrier systems, membrane channels, diffusion and pinocytosis; metabolic functions, membrane-bound enzyme systems, transduction; electrical phenomena in excitable membranes, nerve, muscle, receptors, etc; membrane - membrane interaction, intercellular communication; membrane synthesis and replication; cell regulatory functions of membranes and cybernetic aspects; membrane genetics; evolution and comparative aspects of biomembranes.
All papers will be published in English. The Journal will not publish preliminary notes. It will publish brief letters to the Editor commenting on papers in the Journal. The Pivotal Ideas series will survey the history of ideas which have proven seminal to the biomembrane field. They are personal accounts which will recall the climate and setting in which the ideas arose. For further information, authors may wish to consult the Editorial "Theory and Experimentalism in Biological Sciences," Vol. 129:1. Topical Reviews and the articles in the Pivotal Ideas series are generally by invitation only, but the editors will welcome suggestions. |
