Description:
The
Journal of Molecular Biology provides high quality, comprehensive and broad coverage in all areas of
molecular biology.
The journal publishes original scientific research papers that provide functional and mechanistic 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.
In addition
to research Communications and Articles, the journal welcomes submission of Methods Notes, Databases/ Web Servers, Brevia, Perspectives
and Reviews.
Research areas include but are not limited to:
- DNA replication, repair and recombination, gene expression,
epigenetics and chromatin structure and function, RNA processing, functions of non coding RNAs, transcription
- Structure, chemistry,
processing and function of biologically important macromolecules and complexes
- Biomolecular interactions, systems biology
- Computational biology
- Translation, protein folding, processing and degradation
- Sorting, spatiotemporal organization,
trafficking, signal transduction and intracellular signalling
- Membrane processes, cell surface proteins and cell-cell interactions
- Molecular basis of disease
- Methodological advances, both experimental and theoretical, including databases
