The journal provides a medium for rapid publication of investigations of the molecular biology and biochemistry
of parasitic protozoa and helminths, and their interactions with both the definitive and intermediate host. The main subject areas covered
are: (1.) the chemical structure, biosynthesis, degradation, properties and function of DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and
small molecular-weight substances, (2.) intermediary metabolism and bioenergetics, (3.) molecular and biochemical studies on the mode
of action of antiparasitic drugs, (4.) molecular and biochemical aspects of membrane structure and function, (5.) molecular and biochemical
aspects of host parasite relationships including analysis of parasitic escape mechanisms, (6.) characterisation of parasite antigens
and of parasite and host cell surface receptors, (7.) analysis of gene structure, function and expression, and (8.) mechanism of genetic
recombination.
Papers will only be accepted for publication if they fall within these areas, if they contain original work of high
scientific quality, and if they are well presented. Papers confirming the functions of highly conserved genes will not be considered.
Surveys of individual gene polymorphism will not be suitable for submission unless accompanied by a demonstration of the functional consequence
of any observed variation.
