About the journal
Molecular Microbiology, the leading primary journal in microbial sciences, publishes research articles reporting the results of molecular studies of eukaryotic microorganisms and of prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) and their viruses.
Studies that include genetic, biochemical, biophysical, bioinformatic and structural analyses leading to a deeper understanding of the molecular principles underlying basic physiological processes or mechanisms are considered as potentially suitable for publication in the Journal. Topics that are considered appropriate include gene expression and regulation, pathogenicity and virulence, physiology and metabolism, synthesis of macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, polysaccharides, etc), cell biology and subcellular organization, membrane biogenesis and function, traffic and transport, cell-cell communication and signalling pathways, evolution and gene transfer.
Molecular Microbiology also regularly commissions MicroReviews covering these areas of research, as well as occasional topical MicroCommentaries and other special interest articles. MicroMeeting Reports will also appear in forthcoming issues. These are personal accounts of the most recent and exciting developments in a particular aspect of microbial molecular biology, as presented at a recent symposium, workshop, colloquium or congress, written by one or more of the participants.
Articles focused on host responses (cellular or immunological) to pathogens and on molecular aspects of microbial ecology should be directed to our sister journals Cellular Microbiology and Environmental Microbiology, respectively.
Average submission to first decision is 23 days!

Instructions to Authors
Did you know... Molecular Microbiology has no page charges?
Scope Molecular Microbiology invites high quality, original research articles reporting molecular studies of eukaryotic microorganisms and of prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) and their viruses. Suitable studies include genetic, biochemical, biophysical, bioinformatic and structural analyses leading to a deeper understanding of the molecular principles underlying basic physiological processes or mechanisms. Topics considered appropriate include gene expression and regulation, pathogenicity and virulence, physiology and metabolism, synthesis of macromolecules, cell biology and subcellular organization, membrane biogenesis and function, traffic and transport, cell-cell communication and signalling pathways, evolution, and gene transfer.
Editorial Policy Papers must be broad in scope and lead to general and substantial advances in our understanding of a biological process. Comparative studies are not appropriate unless they lead to new biological insights. Manuscripts reporting genome, transcriptome or proteome-wide screening approaches are expected to incorporate these data as part of a deeper, mechanistic study (see Mol Microbiol 52: 311-312 (2004) for an Editorial discussing this policy).
Features • MicroReviews Short reviews are published in areas of particular interest and current importance. Many, but not all, reviews are invited; authors wishing to submit a review should refer to the instructions available at http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/mmiMicroReview.pdf and should contact the features editor who will decide whether the chosen topic is suitable. • MicroMeetings reports are succinct accounts of the most recent and exciting developments in particular areas of microbial biology, as presented at a recent symposium, workshop, colloquium or congress. MicroMeetings are written by one or more participants at the meeting. Authors wishing to submit a MicroMeeting report should first get in touch with the features editor, who will decide whether the chosen topic is suitable. Further information on the format and content of MicroMeetings is available at http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/mmiMicroMeeting.pdf. • MicroCommentaries are invited articles designed to highlight one or more research papers. Further information on the format and content of MicroCommentaries is available at http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/mmiMicroCommentary.pdf.
The cost of publishing colour images will be waived for authors of MicroReviews, MicroCommentaries and MicroMeetings, who will also, on request to the editors, receive free colour reproduction in the next original article they publish in Molecular Microbiology.
Submission of Manuscripts Manuscripts should be submitted at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/mmi. A user ID and password are obtained on the first use of the site. The following file types are recommended: text in Microsoft Word or generic rich text format (RTF) and figures in EPS or TIFF. At the time of initial submission, a single PDF file may be uploaded containing both text and figures. Papers must be submitted exclusively to Molecular Microbiology and are accepted on the understanding that they have not been, and will not be, published elsewhere. No page charges will be levied.
Molecular Microbiology has a large editorial team with experience in all areas of research covered by the Journal. Authors should generally choose the Editor whose interests are closest to their own: • Brendan Cormack (Fungal molecular biology and pathogenesis) • Peggy Cotter (Bacterial pathogens, virulence gene regulation and function, bacteria-host interactions) • Alan Cowman (Parasitology) • Kenn Gerdes (Bacterial cell biology, translation, small RNAs, post-transcriptional control, accessory elements) • John Helmann (Editor-in-chief; Bacterial gene regulation, transcriptional control mechanisms, stress responses) • James Imlay (Microbial physiology, enzymology, metabolism) • John D. McKinney (Microbial pathogenesis, host-microbe interactions, microbial metabolism) • Tracy Palmer (Bacterial cell surfaces, physiology and energetics, protein traffic, transport) • Tony Pugsley (Features editor: MicroReviews, MicroMeeting Reports and MicroCommentaries)
Please note that all manuscripts (including MicroReviews) on eukaryotic parasites must be submitted to Alan Cowman. All other MicroReviews must be submitted to the features editor.
An editor may reassign a paper if there is a conflict of interest, if another editor would be more appropriate, or if the chosen editor cannot handle the manuscript in a timely fashion. The temporary absence of an editor will be indicated alongside the editor's name on the online manuscript submission page. Authors can still select this editor, knowing that their manuscript will not be processed until after the date indicated. If in doubt, authors should submit their manuscripts to John Helmann for assignment.
Authors are encouraged to suggest up to six potential reviewers and may also indicate non-preferred reviewers with a brief explanation. Authors will usually receive reviewers' comments within 3-4 weeks. The acceptance date will be the date at which the correctly formatted paper arrives at the production office.
Expedited Review In certain rare situations, manuscripts may be eligible for expedited review. Please consult with John Helmann if interested in this option.
Presentation of Manuscripts
Title Page The title page should include the names of authors, affiliations and the e-mail address to which all correspondence should be sent. Telephone and fax numbers should also be supplied. Present addresses of authors should appear as a footnote. A running title of not more than 50 characters should be provided together with up to six key words for indexing purposes.
Summary All papers must normally include a summary not exceeding 200 words.
Text Papers should be as concise as possible, compatible with clarity and completeness. The main text should be divided into Introduction, Results, Discussion, and Experimental procedures. The Results and Discussion sections may be combined and can include additional subheadings. Experimental procedures should be sufficiently detailed to enable the experiments to be reproduced. Pages should be numbered and contain line numbers to facilitate refereeing. Tables and figure legends should follow the main text. Footnotes should be avoided. Abbreviations of non-standard terms should follow, in parentheses, their first full usage.
Figures For production purposes, figures should be provided as EPS or TIFF files. Please consult our web site for further details (http://authorservices.wiley.com/bauthor/illustration.asp). Please ensure that electronic artwork is prepared such that, after reduction to fit across one or two columns width (80 mm or 169 mm) as required, all lettering will be clear and easy to read. Subpanels should be labelled in upper-case letters (A, B, etc.) at the top left-hand corner.
Images cannot be modified to change the appearance of any specific feature. Adjustments of brightness and contrast or colour balance are acceptable but must be applied to the entire image. Features cannot be obscured and any rearrangements must be explicitly indicated by the insertion of dividing lines or spaces. Editors may request the original data from the authors for comparison with the prepared figures. Cases of deliberate misrepresentation of data will result in rejection of the paper and our findings will be reported to the corresponding author's home institution or funding agency.
It is the policy of Molecular Microbiology for authors to pay the full cost for colour artwork (for exceptions see "Features" section). However, if the authors cannot meet these charges, and the editors feel that colour figures are essential, then it may be possible to waive these charges.
Cover Illustrations Illustrations suitable for the cover of Molecular Microbiology are welcomed by the editors. Usually, these are related to submitted papers and can be uploaded as a Supplemental File (labeled Cover Submission). Cover submissions should be high resolution (600 dpi) image files (e.g. TIFF) suitable for printing on the journal cover (up to 8.5 x 11 inches) and should be accompanied by a short description of up to 30 words. Authors who provide an image chosen for the cover will be eligible for free colour art work in a subsequent research paper.
References Authors should provide citations for statements and background information that derive from previously published work and should, where practical, cite the primary literature. Citations to review articles and commentaries are also encouraged and may, in some situations, be more appropriate. We recommend the use of a tool such as EndNote or Reference Manager for reference management and formatting. The current reference styles are available online [Endnote (http://www.endnote.com/support/enstyles.asp) or Reference Manager (http://www.refman.com/support/rmstyles.asp)].
In the text, references should be inserted as follows: (Pugsley, 1996; Matsunaga et al., 1997). Only articles that are published or "in press" may be included in the reference list. In the text, unpublished or submitted studies should be referred to as such (e.g. J.M. Smith, unpublished), or as a personal communication. It is the authors' responsibility to obtain permission for personal communications. The reference list should be in alphabetical order according to the first author. Papers with two authors should follow those of the first named author, arranged in alphabetical order according to the name of the second author. Articles with more than two authors should follow those of the first named author in chronological order. The title of the article must be included. For papers with up to seven authors, the names of all authors should be listed. For papers with eight or more authors, the first six names should be listed, followed by "et al.". Standard abbreviations of journal titles should be used, as in the Index Medicus. The following provide examples:

Genetic Nomenclature Standard genetic nomenclature should be used. For further information, including relevant websites, authors should refer to the Genetic Nomenclature Guide in Trends in Genetics (Elsevier Science Ltd, 1995). For other detailed information, authors should consult Bachman (Microbiol Rev 47: 180–230, 1983) for E. coli K-12: Sanderson and Roth (Microbiol Rev 47: 310–453, 1983) for Salmonella typhimurium. Holloway et al. (Microbiol Rev 43: 73–102, 1979) for Bacillus subtilis; Perkins et al. (Microbiol Rev 46: 426–570, 1982) for Neurospora crassa; and the Handbook of Genetics Vol. 1 (R. C. King, ed., Plenum Press, 1974) for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Nomenclature for DNA restriction and modification enzymes and their genes should follow Roberts et al. (Nucleic Acids Res 31: 1805-1812, 2003).
