The Journal reports on the chemistry, biochemistry and the structure-function relationships of the following systems:
metalloproteins and metallochaperones in homeostasis and trafficking
metal-dependent gene regulation and signalling
interaction of metal ions as well as coordination and organometallic compounds with nucleic acids, other biomolecules and reactive species
metal-containing molecules in medicine, including therapeutics, imaging agents for diagnosis and theranostics
metalloneurochemistry and the role of metal ions in sensory perception
regulatory role of metals in immunology
synthesis and application of metal ion sensors in biological systems
natural and artificial metalloenzymes
synthesis and properties of metal complexes as structural and functional models of metallobiosites
preparation, structural characterization and mode of action of synthetic metallobionanomaterials
molecular mechanisms of toxicity of metals and metalloids and their complexes, and their chemistry in the environment
computational studies of metallo-biomolecules and their synthetic models
biophysical, analytical and spectroscopic methods to study metallobiomolecules.
Manuscripts involving nanoparticles or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) may be suitable for submission to the Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry only if such materials are specifically used to investigate the transport, sensing, or detection of metalloproteins or metallo-pharmaceuticals, or as metallo-enzyme mimics. Manuscripts focused only on the properties of metal-based nanoparticles and/or their biological effects, without providing the molecular details of these effects, should be directed to journals specializing in materials or nanoscience. These guidelines ensure that submissions align with the journal’s emphasis on metal-biological interactions and biochemistry, maintaining a clear focus distinct from general nanoparticle and materials science research.
