In addition, specially commissioned articles that describe emerging directions in the field of chemical biology. Letters describing findings of broad interest are generally five printed pages or shorter in length, while articles are twelve printed pages or shorter in length. Finally, reviews cover key concepts of interest to a broad readership.[2] The journal has published the first three-dimensional interactive chemical structures replicating printed journal figures.[3]
