Description
Journal of Molecular Biology (JMB) provides high quality, comprehensive and broad coverage in all areas of molecular biology. The journal publishes original scientific research papers that provide mechanistic and functional insights and report a significant advance to the field. The journal encourages the submission of multidisciplinary studies that use complementary experimental and computational approaches to address challenging biological questions. Research areas include but are not limited to: Biomolecular interactions, signaling networks, systems biology Cell cycle, cell growth, cell differentiation Cell death, autophagy Cell signaling and regulation Chemical biology Computational biology, in combination with experimental studies DNA replication, repair, and recombination Development, regenerative biology, mechanistic and functional studies of stem cells Epigenetics, chromatin structure and function Gene expression Receptors, channels, and transporters Membrane processes Cell surface proteins and cell adhesion Methodological advances, both experimental and theoretical, including databases Microbiology, virology, and interactions with the host or environment Microbiota mechanistic and functional studies Nuclear organization Post-translational modifications, proteomics Processing and function of biologically important macromolecules and complexes Molecular basis of disease RNA processing, structure and functions of non-coding RNAs, transcription Sorting, spatiotemporal organization, trafficking Structural biology Synthetic biology Translation, protein folding, chaperones, protein degradation and quality control
