Gene publishes papers that focus on the regulation, expression, function, and evolution of genes in all biological contexts, including all prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as well as viruses. Gene strives to be a very diverse journal, and topics in all fields will be considered for publication (note that manuscripts on bioinformatics are only considered for review if they contain experiments). General topics include, but are not limited to, the following: DNA organization, replication, and evolution - Focus on genomic DNA (chromosomal organization, comparative genomics, DNA replication, DNA repair, mobile DNA, mitochondrial DNA, chloroplast DNA). Expression and function - Focus on functional RNAs (microRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, mRNA splicing, alternative polyadenylation) Regulation - Focus on processes that mediate gene read-out (epigenetics, chromatin, histone code, transcription, translation, protein degradation). Gene has launched a series of companion journals that make up the Gene Family that you are welcome to submit to: Gene Reports Meta Gene Plant Gene Animal Gene
