The Journal of Biological Chemistry welcomes high-quality science that seeks to elucidate the molecular and cellular basis of biological processes. Papers published in JBC can therefore fall under the umbrellas of not only biological chemistry, chemical biology, or biochemistry, but also allied disciplines such as biophysics, systems biology, RNA biology, immunology, microbiology, neurobiology, epigenetics, computational biology, ’omics, and many more. The outcome of our focus on papers that contribute novel and important mechanistic insights, rather than on a particular topic area, is that JBC is truly a melting pot for scientists across disciplines. In addition, JBC welcomes papers that describe methods that will help scientists push their biochemical inquiries forward and resources that will be of use to the research community.

《生物化學(xué)雜志》歡迎尋求闡明生物過程的分子和細(xì)胞基礎(chǔ)的高質(zhì)量科學(xué)。因此，在JBC上發(fā)表的論文不僅可以歸為生物化學(xué)、化學(xué)生物學(xué)或生物化學(xué)的范疇，還可以歸為生物物理學(xué)、系統(tǒng)生物學(xué)、RNA生物學(xué)、免疫學(xué)、微生物學(xué)、神經(jīng)生物學(xué)、表觀遺傳學(xué)、計(jì)算生物學(xué)、組學(xué)等相關(guān)學(xué)科的范疇。我們關(guān)注那些能夠提供新穎而重要的力學(xué)見解的論文，而不是某個(gè)特定的主題領(lǐng)域，其結(jié)果是JBC確實(shí)是跨學(xué)科科學(xué)家的大熔爐。此外，JBC歡迎描述方法的論文，這些方法將有助于科學(xué)家推進(jìn)他們的生化研究，并將資源用于研究社區(qū)。
