IUCr 1995 Report - Acta Crystallographica Section D

During 1995, one issue of Section D was devoted to manuscripts from the meeting on Structure-Based Drug Design held in Panama City Beach, Florida, USA, in April 1994. The articles in this issue cover basic concepts of structure-aided design, applications to antiviral agents, drugs involved with the immune system, protease inhibitors and antiparasitic drugs. In addition, a Lead Article by Kurt Wuthrich on NMR - This Other Method for Protein and Nucleic Acid Structure Determination, and a Topical Review by Rui Sousa on the use of stabilizing agents in protein crystallization were also published.

In all, 137 Full Articles and 8 Short Communications were published during the year. Short Communications were generally reports of crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of biological macromolecules. Research papers covered many other aspects of macromolecular crystallography from theoretical to practical details to descriptions of results.

The influx of manuscripts to Section D has been excellent and the editorial staff has made extensive efforts to cut down the time between submission and acceptance.
