Welcome to BMC Chemical Biology published by BioMed Central
BMC Chemical Biology is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research articles in the application of chemistry to the investigation of biological processes and systems including the biosynthesis and metabolism of natural compounds, drug design and complex molecular rearrangements occurring in living organisms.
BMC Chemical Biology (ISSN 1472-6769) is indexed/tracked/covered by PubMed, BIOSIS, CAS, Scopus, EMBASE and Google Scholar.
BMC Chemical Biology 2009, 9 :4
The effect of different drugs on metabolic interaction networks varies in scope from localized to systemic, supporting the use of a system-wide approach when exploring drug actions.
BMC Chemical Biology 2009, 9 :3
New synthetic analogs of cyclic AMP (cAMP) can be used for affinity enrichment and purification of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and other cAMP binding proteins and also have potential for other applications in chemical proteomics.
