Cell Chemical Biology
Cell Chemical Biology (originally Chemistry & Biology) is a Cell Press journal that aims to publish and promote the most important advances in chemical biology with integrity, responsiveness, fairness, and friendliness. Chemical biology is a multidisciplinary discipline that harnesses chemical principles to discover the molecular mechanisms of biological function and disease etiology and develop solutions for life sciences, biotechnology, and human health.Cell Chemical Biology encourages submission of basic, translational, and clinical research articles that provide significant conceptual advancements of broad general interest to researchers within the biological sciences, the biomedical sciences, and associated fields. Research areas that we consider within our scope include but are not limited to cancer biology, immunology, cell biology, microbiology, virology, RNA biology, synthetic biology, protein engineering, genome editing, drug discovery, metabolism, and physiology.We are interested in papers that report molecular mechanisms underlying cellular processes or disease biology, those that report new therapeutics derived from utilizing chemical biology tools, and those that report technologies that perturb, visualize, or measure biological processes. Examples of chemical or molecular tools include but are not confined to nucleic acids and/or their modifications, small molecules, antibodies, biologics, probes, engineered proteins, metabolites, lipids, sugars, and post-translational modifications.We also welcome submissions reporting significant technical advancements in molecular probes, sensors, tools, and technologies, including a proof-of-principle demonstration that the new methodology/tool will help address important questions in biomedical research that are of interest to our broad readership (from basic scientists to clinicians).For further clarifications or questions about our aims and scope, please feel welcome to contact us at [email protected] or email editors directly. You can also submit your manuscript as a presubmission inquiry.Visit the Cell Press website for more information about Cell Chemical Biology - http://www.cell.com/...- ISSN: 2451-9456
Developmental Cell
Developmental Cell, launched in 2001, is a broad-interest journal covering the areas of cell biology and developmental biology. In addition to publishing work spanning all areas of cell biology and developmental biology, we have particular interest in how these fields interface with each other and with other disciplines in biology. The journal aims to showcase work that examines, through a cell biological lens, the fundamentals of how a cell works, how cells interact with one another and with the environment, how cells come together to form a tissue, organ, and ultimately a whole organism, and what happens when any of these processes go awry.Our PhD-trained scientific editors work with authors, reviewers, and editorial board members to publish 12 issues each year, filled with exciting research describing results of unusual significance. We also publish review and perspective articles tailored to the journal’s broad readership. With this wide coverage, Developmental Cell is a unique cross-disciplinary resource for researchers in cell biology and developmental biology and for the general scientific community.Developmen... Cell will consider papers in any area of cell biology or developmental biology, as well as at the interface either of these fields make to any other areas in biology. Examples of these include signaling, cell proliferation, polarity, cell migration, cell lineage and fate specification, chromatin regulation and function, cancer cell biology, evo-devo, disease etiology, membrane traffic, metabolic regulation, morphogenesis and biomechanics, organ development, ncRNAs, stem cell biology, and regeneration. We are also interested in studies building on large datasets or developing new tools that could be good fits for our Resource or Technology formats. The primary criterion for publication in Developmental Cell, as for all Cell Press journals, is new biological insight. We are happy to consider any study that leads to important new conclusions about biological function.- ISSN: 1534-5807
Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology

Please note that studies that are restricted to in silico docking of compounds or other purely computational approaches will not be accepted in the absence of some experimental validation.• Analysis of variation in parasite populations relevant to genetic exchange, pathogenesis, drug and vaccine target characterization, and drug resistance; please note that genetic variation data must be supported by phenotypic/experimen... data showing the effect of the variation, and that papers reporting solely on allele frequencies in specific regions will not be accepted.• Parasite protein trafficking, organelle and membrane biogenesis, and cellular structure especially with reference to the roles of specific molecules• Parasite programmed cell death, development, and cell division at the molecular level• Parasitic disease diagnostics, especially molecular diagnostics, biomarkers, and biosensors for parasite detection and disease monitoring.•Microbio... of parasites, symbiotic relationships, and how microbiota influence parasite development and pathogenicity.• Environmental molecular parasitology, including studies linking molecular parasitology with ecological and environmental factors influencing parasite transmission, adaptation, and evolution.• Methods reports - descriptions of novel or newly-optimized methods with broad applicability to molecular and biochemical parasitologyPapers will only be accepted for publication if they fall within these areas, if they contain original and complete work of high scientific quality, and if they are well presented and clearly written in scientific English. Papers solely confirming the conserved functions of genes previously studied in other organisms will not be considered.

Nitric Oxide
Nitric Oxide is an international journal publishing original research articles, methodological advances, state-of-the-art protocols, and invited reviews focused on the chemistry, redox biology, and signaling of nitric oxide and related small signaling molecules, including hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide. The journal highlights advances in the enzymatic and non-enzymatic production of these molecules, their chemical interactions, the activation and function of second messengers (such as cGMP, cAMP, and non-canonical cyclic nucleotides), and post-translational modifications involved in the regulation of physiological processes and their implications for human health and disease.We welcome interdisciplinary studies spanning biological chemistry, physiology, pharmacology, enzymology, and pathophysiology, as well as clinical investigations.

Journal of Thermal Biology
Environment, Evolution and MedicineThe Journal of Thermal Biology publishes research that advances a mechanistic and organism-centred understanding of how temperature influences humans and animals.
