Biology of T Cells - Part B: The journal will mainly publish primary research papers with findings of unusual significance and broad scientific interest. The main criteria for weighing the appropriateness of a manuscript are its originality and novelty, potential significance and interest to the field, and robustness of data.

Review articles, letters and commentaries on timely topics are also welcome, and proposals for submitting such pieces will be considered in consultation with the Editor-in-Chief. Online peer review is used to increase the efficiency of paper handling. Please read these instructions carefully and follow them closely to ensure that the review and publication of your paper is as efficient and quick as possible. The Editors reserve the right to return manuscripts that are not in accordance with these instructions. All material to be considered for publication in the Journal of Molecular Cell Biology should be submitted in electronic form via the journal's online submission system at online submission website.

Once you have prepared your manuscript according to the instructions below, instructions on how to submit your manuscript online can be found by clicking here. Fast Track allows urgent and competitive research to start the peer-review immediately after submission. Peer-review of manuscripts submitted using the Fast Track can be completed within weeks. If you want to submit your manuscript using the Fast Track, please first contact the editorial office.

Journal of Molecular Cell Biology recognizes that excellent manuscripts may have been erroneously rejected by other journals. We will reconsider papers that have been rejected by Nature, Science, Nature Medicine, Nature Cell Biology, Cell, and some other journals in the original format of those journals, thus saving the authors effort and time. This will expedite the evaluation of the article.

In some instances, the article may be accepted based on the previous review using the Green Track. If you want to submit your manuscript using the Green Track, please contact the editorial office with the manuscript and the previous review. Articles are original papers whose conclusions represent a substantial advance in understanding of an important problem and have immediate, far-reaching implications. Articles have an abstract, separate from the main text, of fewer than words, which does not have references, and does not contain numbers, abbreviations, acronyms or measurements unless essential.

It is aimed at readers outside the discipline. Articles should begin with an introduction expanding on the background to the work some overlap with the abstract is acceptable , before proceeding to a concise, focused account of the findings, ending with some paragraphs of discussion.

Materials and methods should be after the discussion and before the acknowledgements. For an original article, the total words for the main text including references and figure legends are expected to be no more than , and figures more than 8 can be set as the Supplementary material. Reviews should be recognized as scholarly by specialists in the field being covered, but should also be written with a view to informing readers who are not specialized in that particular field, and should therefore be presented using simple prose.

Please avoid excessive jargon and technical detail. Reviews should capture the broad developments and implications of recent work. The opening paragraph should make clear the general thrust of the review and provide a clear sense of why the review is now particularly appropriate. The concluding paragraph should provide the reader with an idea of how the field may develop or future problems to overcome, but should not summarize the article.

Reviews should include an abstract of fewer than words and should cite no more than references. The total words for the main text including references and figure legends are expected to be no more than , and figures more than 3 can be set as the Supplementary material. These are short experimental papers that may present as little as a single experiment or observation and should constitute unusually interesting data combined with a discussion of what the data might mean, or an explanation of why the data contradicts current paradigms.

There is no abstract and no subsection on introduction, results or discussion. Nevertheless, the beginning paragraphs should present concise but yet sufficient background information that would allow the readers to appreciate the rationale of the work, and put the study in a proper perspective. Generally, the information on materials and methods is not needed, but in the case when such information is unique and important to the study, it could be submitted as the supplementary data.

The total words for the main text including references and figure legends are expected to be no more than , with less than 10 references, and figures more than 1 can be set as the Supplementary material. Research Highlights comment on recent advances, which were reported by one or several breaking papers, in a certain field. A Research Highlight piece is intended for our general readers, and it should be readily accessible to the non-expert audience without a need to look into additional literatures. Each Research Highlight should be contributed by no more than 3 authors. There is no abstract and no subsection.

Generally, the total words for the main text including references and figure legends are expected to be no more than , with less than 10 references and 1 figure. Perspectives provide views from scientists with high reputation in the field on the developments and implications of key findings in the proper context of the field. Each Perspective is expected to be contributed by no more than 3 authors.

The Perspective has an abstract of fewer than words to outline the main message. Subheadings can be included where necessary to break up the main text. But there is no strict hierarchical organization as required in a Review. Generally, the total words for the main text including references and figure legends are expected to be no more than , with less than 30 references and 3 figures. Additional detailed description on the topic, references, figures, and tables should be submitted and set as the Supplementary material.

Retrospects are invited essays authored by respected and recognized researchers in a certain field to share with general audience the personal experiences, major events of the field, and stories behind those achievements.

Retrospects follow the similar formatting guidelines as Perspectives, except for not including the Supplementary material. Manuscripts should be written in concise and correct English, and at a level that will be accessible to the broad readership of the journal. The manuscript should be organized in the following order:. Each submission must be accompanied with a cover letter emphasizing any novel and special points to draw the editors' attention.

A brief illumination of what had been done previously, the scientific advance contained in the findings and the significance of the work to the readership of the journal should be provided. The corresponding author is asked to sign on the letter. Email address, telephone and fax numbers must be present.

The title should occupy no more than characters. Serial titles are not allowed. The title should be short and informative, and should not contain unconventional abbreviations. A running title of less than 50 characters is necessary to convey the significance of the paper. The key words less than 7 should also be listed. Authors' full names and affiliations must be provided in an informative format. It is important to indicate a corresponding author, together with the email address, telephone and fax numbers. Each author must have contributed substantively to justify inclusion as an author; any other contributors should instead be acknowledged appropriately in the Acknowledgments section.

The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that all authors have made bona fide, substantive contributions to the research and have seen and approved the manuscript in final form prior to submission. This part consists of a single paragraph not exceeding words. In particular, the Abstract should summarize the background of the research, novel finding of the paper and the importance of the results as briefly as possible.

It should convey clearly and completely the significance and advance of the work to the readership before they have read the paper. Abbreviations and reference citation should generally be avoided. The introduction should provide the necessary background information with succinct words to give a proper perspective for the study. Only the necessary background information should be provided, instead of a detailed review of the field. Previous publications that provided the groundwork for the paper submitted must be mentioned.

All symbols and abbreviations used must be defined, unless they are common abbreviations, symbols of chemical elements or standard units of measurements. Subheadings are not used in this section.
