Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the continuation of our Special Issue https://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms/special_issues/Bioactive_
Structural.
The natural sources had been always important to find new compounds with different chemical structure and biological activity with potential practical application in different fields. The source is essentially constituted by terrestrial and marine organisms and microorganism, and among them pathogen or endophytic fungi, bacteria, plant and marine organisms. Lichens, although lesser investigated, also are considered a source for natural compounds with original skeleton and biological activity. Thus the main aims of the special volume are the isolation and chemical and biological characterization of microbial, plant and lichen metabolites. Also article describing their derivatization for structure-activity relationships or mode of action studies and BIOFORMULATION are welcome. The results of mutidiciplinary research projects are preferred. The manuscript could be a scientific work or a reviewer.
Prof. Dr. Antonio Evidente

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
