The Open Biochemistry Journal is a peer-reviewed open-access journal dedicated to the rapid publication of original research articles, reviews, and letters in all sub-disciplines of biochemistry (including genomics, gene expression, replication, proteomics, structural biology, enzymology, bioenergetics, metabolism and signal transduction). The journal publishes clearly written articles describing significant advances in the field that are of great interest for the scientific community worldwide. Non-conclusive or confirmatory studies are not accepted. The journal publishes short communications, full-length research articles as well as reviews and mini-reviews.
