INSECT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

Insect Molecular Biology has been dedicated to providing researchers with the opportunity to publish high quality original research on topics broadly related to insect molecular biology since 1992. IMB is particularly interested in publishing research in insect genomics/genes and proteomics/proteins.This includes research related to:? insect gene structure? control of gene expression? localisation and function/activity of proteins? interactions of proteins and ligands/substrates? effect of mutations on gene/protein function? evolution of insect genes/genomes, especially where principles relevant to insects in general are established? molecular population genetics where data are used to identify genes (or regions of genomes) involved in specific adaptations? gene mapping using molecular tools? molecular interactions of insects with microorganisms including Wolbachia, symbionts and viruses or other pathogens transmitted by insectsPapers can include large data sets e.g.from micro-array or proteomic experiments or analyses of genome sequences done in silico (subject to the data being placed in the context of hypothesis testing).For more information on suitable content for IMB see Editorial here.IMB in also interested in publishing research associated with whole genome sequencing efforts and sequence consortium coordinators are encouraged to contact the Editors for more information.To allow for rapid, easily available publication of the latest type of insect molecular research IMB offers:? Open Access via OnlineOpen? Free Access for group publications (e.g. genome consortia)? Accommodation of large supplemental data files? Rapid on-line publication via Early View? Free on-line colour illustrations

INSECT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY期刊中文简介

自1992年以来，昆虫分子生物学一直致力于为研究人员提供发表与昆虫分子生物学广泛相关的高质量原创研究的机会。IMB对发表昆虫基因组学/基因和蛋白质组学/蛋白质的研究特别感兴趣。这包括与以下相关的研究:?昆虫基因结构?控制基因表达?蛋白质的定位和功能/活性?蛋白质与配体/底物的相互作用?基因/蛋白功能突变的影响?昆虫基因/基因组的进化，特别是在与昆虫相关的一般原则已经确立的地方?分子群体遗传学(molecular population genetics)，利用数据来识别与特定适应有关的基因(或基因组区域)?利用分子工具绘制基因图谱?昆虫与微生物的分子相互作用，包括沃尔巴克氏体、共栖体以及昆虫传播的病毒或其他病原体论文可以包括大数据集，例如，从微阵列或蛋白质组实验或分析基因组序列在硅(取决于数据被放置在假设测试的背景下)。有关适合IMB的内容的更多信息，请参见此处的编辑。IMB也有兴趣出版与全基因组测序相关的研究成果，并鼓励序列联盟协调员联系编辑获取更多信息。为方便快捷地出版最新的昆虫分子研究刊物，IMB提供:?通过在线开放访问?团体出版物的免费访问(例如基因组协会)?适应大型补充数据文件?通过早期视图快速在线发布?免费的在线彩色插图
