Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology (BBA-PSME)
Journal Descriptions
iochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) – Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology was a respected monthly research journal published by Elsevier as part of the long‑standing BBA series. Running from 1982 to 2002, the journal focused on biochemical and biophysical studies of proteins and enzymes, placing special emphasis on protein structure, conformational dynamics, and molecular mechanisms of enzymatic activity. It published original research articles that elucidated the relationship between protein conformation and biochemical function, including studies on protein folding, metalloproteins, spectroscopic characterization of protein structures in solution, enzyme kinetics, catalytic mechanisms, and structure‑function correlations. The journal integrated approaches from protein chemistry, structural biology, molecular biology, and biophysics to unravel how protein structure dictates function, regulation, and interactions with ligands and other macromolecules. Its scope was foundational in the era before the rise of high‑throughput proteomics; by the late 1990s and early 2000s the field’s evolving focus on systems‑level protein analysis led to the launch of Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) – Proteins and Proteomics. This successor journal incorporated modern proteomic methodologies while maintaining the mechanistic emphasis characteristic of the original Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology section. The original BBA title provided critical insights into enzyme mechanisms and protein structural biochemistry, influencing subsequent decades of research.
