Biomolecular Modelling and Simulation

Computational modelling and simulation of biomolecular structure and interactions play a key role in linking bioinformatics and structural biology, addressing knowledge gaps between sequence, structure and function. Molecular biotechnology has greatly benefitted from computational insights about biochemical mechanisms, protein-ligand/protein/DNA/RNA complex interactions, structure-activity/function relationships and biomolecular design. This special issue welcomes both reviews and original research articles concerning topics, but not limited to: biomolecular simulation; in silico / de novo biomolecular design/optimization; structure-activity/function/property relationships; development of new computational methods/algorithms for the analyses of biomolecular structure, function and interactions. Both invited and unsolicited manuscripts will be considered for this special issue.
