Journal Title：Nucleus

Nucleus is a fully open access peer-reviewed journal. All articles will (if accepted) be available for anyone to read anywhere, at any time immediately on publication.

Aims & Scope: The eukaryotic cell nucleus is more than a storage organelle for genomic DNA. It is involved in critical steps of cell signaling and gene regulation, as well as the maintenance of genome stability, including DNA replication and DNA damage repair. These activities heavily depend on the spatial and temporal “functional” organization of the nucleus and its integration into the complex meshwork of cellular scaffolding.

Nucleus provides a platform for presenting and discussing cutting-edge research on all aspects of biology of the cell nucleus. It brings together a multidisciplinary community of scientists working in the areas of:

? Nuclear structure and dynamics

? Subnuclear organelles

? Chromatin organization

? Nuclear transport

? DNA replication and DNA damage repair

? Gene expression and RNA processing

? Nucleus in signaling and development

Nucleus offers a variety of paper formats including:

? Original Research articles

? Short Reports

? Reviews

? Commentaries

? Extra Views

? Methods manuscripts.

Nucleus 是一本完全開放的同行評(píng)審期刊。所有文章（如果被接受）將在發(fā)表后立即供任何人隨時(shí)隨地閱讀。

目標(biāo)和范圍：真核細(xì)胞核不僅僅是基因組 DNA 的儲(chǔ)存細(xì)胞器。它參與細(xì)胞信號(hào)傳導(dǎo)和基因調(diào)控的關(guān)鍵步驟，以及基因組穩(wěn)定性的維持，包括 DNA 復(fù)制和 DNA 損傷修復(fù)。這些活動(dòng)在很大程度上取決于細(xì)胞核的空間和時(shí)間“功能”組織及其與細(xì)胞支架復(fù)雜網(wǎng)絡(luò)的整合。

Nucleus 提供了一個(gè)平臺(tái)，用于展示和討論細(xì)胞核生物學(xué)各個(gè)方面的前沿研究。它匯集了在以下領(lǐng)域工作的多學(xué)科科學(xué)家社區(qū)：

? 核結(jié)構(gòu)和動(dòng)力學(xué)

? 亞核細(xì)胞器

? 染色質(zhì)組織

? 核運(yùn)輸

? DNA 復(fù)制和 DNA 損傷修復(fù)

? 基因表達(dá)和 RNA 處理

? 信號(hào)傳導(dǎo)和發(fā)育中的細(xì)胞核

Nucleus 提供多種論文格式，包括：

? 原創(chuàng)研究文章

? 簡(jiǎn)短報(bào)告

? 評(píng)論

? 評(píng)論

? 額外視圖

? 方法手稿。

Nucleus創(chuàng)刊于2010年，由Landes Bioscience出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋CELL BIOLOGY全領(lǐng)域，此刊是中等級(jí)別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對(duì)來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業(yè)認(rèn)可度不錯(cuò)，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 13 Weeks ，影響因子指數(shù)2.7，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
