Dear experts, I submitted on December 3rd and it is still "with editor" until December 23rd. I sent an email to inquire about the status and the manuscript status instantly changed to "Decision Pending". There is a high probability of rejection. Waiting anxiously.

Review speed: 3.0 | Submission acceptance rate: 25.0 Emphasis on research direction: Molecular Biology Sharing of experience: The experience was not very good. After submitting the paper for 3 months without any response, I sent an email to urge them once. After about half a month, they gave me major revisions with a lot of comments. I had to conduct experiments for another half a year to address the comments. After resubmitting for review, it took 2 weeks for them to reject it. If you are in a hurry to graduate, be cautious when submitting.

How much is the magazine layout fee approximately?

Great god! Help! After I submit, the status is "Manuscript Submission Incomplete" with a question mark prompt indicating only one Data Citation. After I tick the agreement, the status remains unchanged. Can you please give me some guidance on what to do? Do all authors need to confirm by email after submission or is it the corresponding author who needs to confirm?

Hello! After I submitted, the status is "Manuscript Submission Incomplete", and the only question mark prompt is for Data Citation. Even after I checked the box agreeing, the status did not change. Can anyone provide guidance on what to do? Do all authors need to email confirmation after submission, or does the corresponding author need to confirm?

It is recommended to complete the main results section before beginning to write the article. However, you can also start drafting the article after obtaining the main phenotype data or designing the topic

(0) Thank | 维尔娜菲茨杰拉德

This varies from person to person. If the main results have been completed, it is generally recommended to start with the results. If the main results are still ongoing, you can start with the methods and introduction

Hello, may I ask if the status will change during the review period? My status has been the same all along, and I don't know if it has been reviewed. I am in a hurry

Experience sharing: Do not submit if you do not have a score above 5, otherwise it is a waste of time. It is required to have a certain level of novelty and a substantial amount of data support. Classic journals in molecular biology are highly recognized abroad

I think it's also a classic magazine. It's worth submitting

This magazine has very strict requirements. It used to be a journal in the 7-8 tier, a top-tier journal in the field of molecular biology. Now it has fallen to the same level as JBC. However, similar to JBC, it is highly recognized. In general, ordinary work cannot be published there. A complete explanation of the mechanism is needed, and the workload is not small. It is a very good magazine. If you do not have the level of a second-tier journal, it is better not to waste your time

Experience Sharing: Recently, I had an article accepted. I submitted it at the end of April and received revision comments within two weeks. There were many comments and a lot of additional experiments needed, with strict requirements on the mechanism. After the first revision, it took three months for the second review, and then two weeks for further revisions. The second round of comments was fewer and did not require additional experiments, just some revisions to the discussion section. The manuscript was accepted two days after the second revision

How should we view the layout fee of this magazine? It's so confusing

Is this magazine suitable for urgent submissions by graduating students? How fast is the review process?

(0) Thank | 一只智慧呀

Stuck in this dilemma, it’s already difficult to push up to a higher level. A score of over 4 is considered satisfactory

Why is the score dropping so sharply?
