The primary areas of discussion in the journal are Biochemistry, Protein structure, Biophysics, Stereochemistry and Crystallography. Research on Biochemistry addressed in it frequently intersections with the field of Cell biology. It addresses concerns in Cell biology which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Genetics, Receptor and Molecular biology.
Some problems in Protein structure that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Peptide sequence, Computational biology and Protein folding. While Biophysics is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Membrane, Protein subunit, Allosteric regulation and Molecular dynamics. The journal facilitates discussions on Stereochemistry that incorporate concepts from other fields like Oxidoreductase, Transferase and Active site.
The Crystallography research dealing mostly with Crystal structure is the focus of it.
The published articles primarily tackle Biochemistry, Protein structure, Stereochemistry, Crystallography and Binding site. Most of the Biochemistry studies addressed in the journal articles also intersect with Cell biology. While work presented in the journal papers provide substantial information on Protein structure, it also covers topics in Plasma protein binding, Biophysics, Protein subunit, Protein folding and Peptide sequence.
The discussions in Structure mainly cover the fields of Biophysics, Cell biology, Computational biology, Allosteric regulation and Cryo-electron microscopy. The journal focuses on Biophysics but sometimes tackles the closely related topic of Actin which is concerned with Cytoskeleton. In it, Receptor and Transcription factor are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Cell biology research.
It focuses on different Receptor studies like G protein-coupled receptor and Ligand (biochemistry). Most of the works presented in it deals with Transcription factor but it intersects with the subject of Transcription (biology). The journal connects research in Computational biology with the related topic of Structural biology.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Structure (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Structure (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 1.30% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 15.79% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.47% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 24.34% of all publications and 45.39% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2020)For students interested in Chemistry, exploring related online degrees and career pathways can broaden opportunities. Many choose accelerated programs to fast-track their education, such as an accelerated pharmd, which can shorten the time needed to enter the pharmaceutical field.
Pharmacy careers require a significant educational commitment, so understanding how much schooling to be a pharmacist is essential before pursuing this path. Typically, a PharmD involves several years of rigorous study, blending chemistry with clinical practice.
For those interested in the business side of pharmaceuticals, becoming a pharmaceutical sales representative offers a promising salary and dynamic career growth. Exploring the pharmaceutical sales salary and career paths helps candidates understand what to expect and how to prepare.
Additionally, careers such as medical coding play a crucial role in healthcare administration. Obtaining a certified professional coder certification can open doors to stable and well-paying positions that complement a background in chemistry and healthcare knowledge.
