Welcome to BMC Molecular Biology published by BioMed Central
BMC Molecular Biology is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research articles in all aspects of DNA and RNA in a cellular context, encompassing investigations of chromatin, replication, recombination, mutation, repair, transcription, translation and RNA processing and function.
BMC Molecular Biology (ISSN 1471-2199) is indexed/tracked/covered by PubMed, MEDLINE, BIOSIS, CAS, EMBASE, Scopus, Thomson Reuters (ISI) and Google Scholar.

The ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) small subunit, NrdB, and probably the RNR protein itself, are closely linked to the replication complex at the replication fork in Escherichia coli.
BMC Molecular Biology 2010, 11 :6
In response to falling humidity, the nematode Aphelenchus avenae upregulates a set of genes before entering a state of suspended animation, upregulated glutathione peroxidase making a demonstrable contribution to surviving extreme dessication.
BMC Molecular Biology 2009, 10 :103
A putative regulatory sequence has been characterized within exon 6A of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA, which is involved in alternative splicing of this exon and regulates the expression levels of the isoforms of VEGF.
