Nature Metabolism volume 1 issue 1

Nature Metabolism is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes research articles, reviews, and commentary on all aspects of metabolism across biology, including metabolic pathways and their regulation, metabolite function, and metabolic disorders. The journal aims to provide a platform for scientists in the fields of cell biology, physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology to share their findings on how organisms manage their energy needs, respond to metabolic challenges, and regulate metabolic networks for optimal function.

Scope and Focus[edit | edit source]

The scope of Nature Metabolism encompasses a wide range of topics within the field of metabolism. This includes, but is not limited to, studies on carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, protein metabolism, nucleotide metabolism, energy metabolism, and the integration of metabolic pathways in various physiological and pathological contexts. The journal is particularly interested in research that provides insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic processes, the role of metabolism in disease, and the potential for targeting metabolic pathways in therapy.

Article Types[edit | edit source]

Nature Metabolism publishes several types of articles:

  • Research Articles: Original, high-quality research papers presenting novel findings of broad interest.
  • Reviews: Comprehensive overviews of recent developments in specific areas of metabolism.
  • Commentaries: Expert opinions and discussions on current topics in metabolism.
  • Perspectives: Articles offering a new viewpoint on a particular area of metabolism, potentially sparking debate or reevaluation of existing concepts.

Editorial Process[edit | edit source]

The editorial process at Nature Metabolism involves rigorous peer review to ensure the publication of high-quality research. Manuscripts submitted to the journal are first evaluated by the editorial team for their suitability and relevance to the journal's scope. Suitable manuscripts are then sent to expert reviewers in the field, who assess the manuscript for its scientific validity, significance, and originality. Based on the reviewers' feedback, the editorial team makes a decision on the manuscript, which can be acceptance, revision, or rejection.

Impact[edit | edit source]

Since its inception, Nature Metabolism has quickly established itself as a leading journal in the field of metabolism. It is recognized for publishing cutting-edge research that advances our understanding of metabolic processes and their implications for health and disease. The journal's impact factor, a measure of the average number of citations to recent articles published in the journal, is indicative of its influence and prestige within the scientific community.

Submission Guidelines[edit | edit source]

Researchers wishing to submit their work to Nature Metabolism must adhere to the journal's submission guidelines. These guidelines detail the manuscript preparation, including the structure of the article, figure presentation, and supplementary information. Authors are also required to comply with the journal's policies on data availability, ethical considerations, and conflict of interest disclosure.
