nucleic acids research

核酸研究(NAR)发表前沿研究成果，涉及核酸代谢和/或相互作用的核酸和蛋白质的物理、化学、生化和生物学方面。它能迅速出版下列类别的论文:化学和合成生物学;计算生物学;基因调控、染色质与表观遗传学;基因组完整性、修复和复制;基因组学;分子生物学;核酸酶;RNA和结构生物学。调查和总结部分提供了简要回顾的格式。每年的第一期专门讨论生物数据库，7月份的一期专门讨论描述对生物社区有价值的基于web的软件资源的论文。

Nucleic Acids Research ( NAR ) publishes the results of leading edge research into physical, chemical, biochemical and biological aspects of nucleic acids and proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism and/or interactions. It enables the rapid publication of papers under the following categories: Chemistry and synthetic biology; Computational biology; Gene regulation, chromatin and epigenetics; Genome integrity, repair and replication; Genomics; Molecular biology; Nucleic acid enzymes; RNA and Structural biology. A Survey and Summary section provides a format for brief reviews. The first issue of each year is devoted to biological databases, and an issue in July is devoted to papers describing web-based software resources of value to the biological community.
