Dear Authors/Researchers We are pleased to announce a call for papers for the new thematic issue on *'*Peptide Science at the Chemistry Biology Interface*'* published by Current Protein & Peptide Science <http://benthamscience.com/journal/index.php?journalID=cpps#top> (Impact Factor: 2.326).
*Guest edited by Prof. Diwan S. Rawat, Dr. Prija Ponnan *, this thematic issue will publish review articles with emphasis on the frontiers of peptide chemistry and biology covering contemporary and emerging applications of peptide science involving topics such as *de novo* design of peptide and peptide mimetic engineered with predictable structure and function with better precision for targeted application; advances in cyclic and macrocyclic peptide discovery; post-translationally modified peptide and peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates intervening in biological processes, controlling macromolecular assembly and binding; peptides as catalysts and a basis for new biomaterials; discovery and manoeuvring of bioactive natural peptides; using ligation approaches and amide bond formation in peptide chemistry. Special attention will be given to the topics including the application of peptide science in signal transduction; peptide-membrane interactions; peptides as diagnostics; pharmaceuticals, biomaterials for peptide delivery; peptides as imaging agents and peptide nano materials. We welcome the submission of high-quality review articles to the thematic issue of Current Protein & Peptide Science <http://benthamscience.com/journal/index.php?journalID=cpps#top> that discuss research in the field of peptide science covering recent advances in the field from the leading laboratories from different regions/countries of the world and including future perspectives. Original papers, research articles and letter articles/short communications are not considered for publication in Current Protein & Peptide Science. *The submission deadline is December 31, 2014.* Guide to authors and other details are available on the Journal’s website Current Protein & Peptide Science <http://benthamscience.com/journal/index.php?journalID=cpps#top>. Please note that all the submitted proposals will be peer reviewed prior to any decision on acceptance for publication. Interested Authors/ Researcher, please submit preliminary Abstract containing a list of names and affiliations of contributing authors, titles of proposed articles at [email protected]. *We would also appreciate if you could kindly circulate the information to colleagues and other contacts in the field.* Kind regards, *Prof. Diwan S. Rawat and Dr. Prija Ponnan* Guest Editors *Current Protein & Peptide Science* <http://benthamscience.com/journal/index.php?journalID=cpps#top>
