Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology is a leading monthly review journal published by Nature Publishing Group. As its title suggests, it covers a broad range of topics within two distinct disciplines: molecular biology, the study of endogenous macromolecules, and cell biology, the structures, processes and interactions found the cellular level.
The scope of the journal includes:
- Bioenergetics (photosynthesis, cellular respiration, organelle biochemistry)
- Cell death (apoptosis, necrosis)
- Cell signalling (signalling cascades, ion channels, gap junctions)
- Cell growth and division (cancer, cell cycle, cytokinesis)
- Chromosome biology (chromosome structure, translocations, chromatin, transposons)
- Cytoskeletal dynamics (cell motility, molecular motors, actin, microtubules, intermediate filaments)
- Developmental cell biology (asymmetric cell division, stem cells, developmental signalling, cell differentiation)
- Gene expression (gene transcription, splicing, RNA stability, translation, circadian rhythms)
- Membrane dynamics (membrane organization, endocytosis, exocytosis, organelle biogenesis, endomembrane system)
- Nuclear transport (import and export of molecules to and from the cell nucleus)
- Nucleic acid metabolism (DNA repair, recombination and DNA replication)
- Plant cell biology
- Protein structure and metabolism (structure-function relationships, quality control, post-translational modification, folding, translocation, degradation)
