Gene is apeer-reviewedscientific journal ingenetics andmolecular biology, focusing on thecloning,structure,function, as well as the biomedical and biotechnological importance ofgenes. The scope of the journal includes all biological organisms including viruses, prokaryotes, and eukaryotes. It is organized into topics, which include Human Genetics, Cancer Genetics, Neurogenetics, Animal Genetics, Genome Editing, Molecular Ecology, Plant Genetics, Parasitology and Virology, as well as Microbiology.
The journal is part of the Gene Family of journals and was established in 1976. It is published byElsevier and theeditor-in-chief is Marianna Kruithof-de Julio (University of Bern) The Gene Family of journals comprises the journalsGene, Gene Reports, Human Gene, andPlant Gene. According to theJournal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2022impact factor of 3.5.[1]
The journal's first issue was published in 1976 by Elsevier/North-Holland Biomedical Press.Gene was first intended to focus on recombination processes of genes and the properties of reconstructed genes and genomes, according to a letter written by Waclaw Szybalski in the first issue.[2] Over the years, subspecialized publications on human and plant genetics, as well as a companion journalGene Reports, which focuses on the regulation, expression, and evolution of genes and genetic material across a broad range of biological contexts have been split off.
