About the journal
|
Biochemical Genetics provides an essential link between the sciences of biology, chemistry, and genetics by offering an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of new developments. The extraordinary scope, dynamics, and progress that presently characterize modern biochemical genetics are reflected in the journal's original papers on fundamental experimental and theoretical research in the biochemical genetics of all organisms, from viruses to man. Contributions deal with the molecular aspects of genetic variation and evolution, mutation, gene action and regulation, immunogenetics, somatic cell genetics, and nucleic acid function in heredity and development, and with the biochemical aspects of genetic defects

Instructions to Authors
- Manuscripts should be sent to:
Dr. Hugh S. Forrest Editor, Biochemical Genetics School of Biological Sciences Patterson Lab 334 University of Texas at Austin Austin, Texas 78712
- Submission is a representation that the manuscript has not been published previously and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A statement transferring copyright from the authors (or their employers, if they hold the copyright) to Plenum Publishing Corporation will be required before the manuscript can be accepted for publication. The Editor will supply the necessary forms for this transfer. Such a written transfer of copyright, which previously was assumed to be implicit in the act of submitting a manuscript, is necessary under the U.S. Copyright Law in order for the publisher to carry through the dissemination of research results and reviews as widely and effectively as possible.
- Type double-spaced, and submit the original and two copies (including, where possible, copies of all illustrations and tables).
- An abstract is to be provided, preferably no longer than 150 words.
- A list of 4–5 key words is to be provided directly below the abstract. Key words should express the precise content of the manuscript, as they are used for indexing purposes, both internal and external.
- Illustrations (photographs, drawings, diagrams, and charts) are to be numbered in one consecutive series of Arabic numerals. The captions for illustrations should be typed on a separate sheet of paper. Photographs should be large, glossy prints, showing high contrast. Drawings should be prepared with india ink. Either the original drawings or good-quality photographic prints are acceptable. Identify figures on the back with author's name and number of the illustration.
- Tables should be numbered and referred to by number in the text. Each table should be typed on a separate sheet of paper.
- List references alphabetically at the end of the paper and refer to them in the text by name and year in parentheses. Where there are three or more authors, only the first author's name is given in the text, followed by et al. References should include titles of papers. Authors are particularly requested to become familiar with and to use accepted genetic and phenotypic nomenclature for their organisms. Rules for mouse nomenclature are available on-line from the Jackson Laboratory through GBASE, Gopher, and World Wide Web and in Mouse Genome 92(2) in June 1994.
- After a manuscript has been accepted for publication and after all revisions have been incorporated, manuscripts should be submitted to the Editor's Office as hard copy accompanied by electronic files on disk. Label the disk with identifying information — software, journal name, and first author's last name. The disk must be the one from which the accompanying manuscript (finalized version) was printed out. The Editor's Office cannot accept a disk without its accompanying, matching hard-copy manuscript.
- The journal makes no page charges. Reprints are available to authors, and order forms are sent with proofs.
