Cell Chemical Biology

Journal Title：Cell Chemical Biology

Cell Chemical Biology is a Cell Press journal publishing research and review content of exceptional interest for the chemical biology community. Launched in 1994 under the title Chemistry & Biology, the journal was the first to recognize the growing importance of investigations done at the interface of chemistry and biology, and its mission has always been to support and promote chemical biology and conversation and collaboration between chemical and life sciences.

Cell Chemical Biology strongly encourages submission of articles that provide significant conceptual advancement of broad general interest to both chemists and biologists. We are especially interested in papers that combine the use of chemical tools to perturb, visualize, and measure biological systems and properties and offer unique insights into molecular mechanism or physiology. We also encourage submissions that are focused on method development for basic life sciences or that have practical impact of either clinical or biotechnological nature. Some additional types of research that we consider within our scope are studies of metabolism and physiology; enzyme mechanism and natural product biosynthesis; generation, distribution, and function of small molecule-protein conjugates such as post-translational modifications; mechanism of resistance to small molecules by viruses/bacteria/cancer cells/organisms; intra- and intercellular and intra- and interspecies communication mediated by small molecules; and chemical biology of lipids, sugars, and nucleic acids. Finally, large-scale studies enabled by the use of chemistry-based technology, such as proteomics, lipidomics, metabolomics, and glycomics, are also within our scope, as well as synthetic and systems biology work when inspired and supported by chemical tools or aimed at engineering biological systems to perform a new type of chemical transformation.

Cell Chemical Biology 是 Cell Press 出版的一本期刊，发表化学生物学界特别感兴趣的研究和评论内容。该期刊于 1994 年以 Chemistry & Biology 为名创刊，率先认识到化学和生物学交叉领域研究的重要性日益增加，其使命一直是支持和促进化学生物学以及化学和生命科学之间的对话与合作。

Cell Chemical Biology 强烈鼓励提交能够为化学家和生物学家提供广泛关注的重大概念进步的文章。我们特别感兴趣的是结合使用化学工具来扰乱、可视化和测量生物系统和特性，并提供对分子机制或生理学的独特见解的论文。我们还鼓励提交专注于基础生命科学方法开发或具有临床或生物技术性质的实际影响的论文。我们考虑的其他一些研究类型包括代谢和生理学研究；酶机制和天然产物生物合成；小分子-蛋白质结合物的产生、分布和功能，如翻译后修饰；病毒/细菌/癌细胞/生物体对小分子的抗性机制；小分子介导的细胞内和细胞间以及物种内和物种间通讯；以及脂质、糖和核酸的化学生物学。最后，通过使用基于化学的技术（例如蛋白质组学、脂质组学、代谢组学和糖组学）实现的大规模研究也在我们的范围内，以及在化学工具的启发和支持下或旨在设计生物系统以进行新型化学转化的合成和系统生物学工作。
