1. Aims and Scope

BMB reports is an international journal devoted to the very rapid dissemination of timely and significant results in diverse fields of biochemistry and molecular biology. Novel findings in the area of genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics, and systems biology are also considered for publication. For speedy publication of novel knowledge, we aim to offer a final decision to the authors in less than 3 weeks from the submission date.
BMB reports is published by Korean Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. The journal is indexed in MEDLINE/PubMed, Index Medicus, Science Citation Index Expanded, Biochemistry-Biophysics Citation Index, Research Alert, and Chemical Abstracts.
