Monomeric DsRed variants

The construction of monomeric DsRed variants has proven to be a difficult task. More than 30 amino acid alterations to the structure were required for the creation of the first-generation monomeric DsRed protein
(termed RFP1). We want papers within our scope that will advance our knowledge on why the derivative exhibits significantly reduced fluorescence emission compared to the native protein and photo-bleaches very quickly,
rendering it much less useful than monomeric green and yellow fluorescent proteins.

Mutagenesis research

We will accept papers within our scope dealing with mutagenesis research efforts, including novel techniques such as somatic hypermutation, are continuing in the search for yellow, orange, red, and deep red fluorescent protein variants that further reduce the tendency of these potentially efficacious biological probes to self-associate while simultaneously pushing emission maxima towards longer wavelengths.

Damaged mitochondria forms

Mitochondria are key in the regulation of energy and metabolism homeostasis and harbor a complex quality control system that limits mitochondrial damage to ensure mitochondrial integrity and function. The scope includes also the delicate regulatory network that balances the generation of new and removal of damaged mitochondria forms as the basis of aging and longevity.

Mitochondria and  aging,

We will accept for publication or any manuscript within our scope that updates our current understanding of how mitochondrial functional decline contributes to aging, including the role of somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and mitochondrial dynamics and quality control pathways.

Dysregulated mitochondrial dynamics

We will also consider papers within our scope on emerging evidence on how dysregulated mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial biogenesis, and turnover mechanisms contribute to the pathogenesis of age-related disorders. We will also be interested in all possible strategies designed to enhance mitochondrial function by targeting mitochondrial dynamics, quality control, and mitohormesis pathways crucial in the promotion of healthy aging and can protect against age-related diseases, and mediate longevity.
