《分子細胞》旨在發表分子生物學方面的最新研究成果。該雜志涵蓋核心細胞過程，包括:DNA復制、重組和修復染色質生物學和基因組組織轉錄RNA處理和衰變非編碼RNA的功能翻譯蛋白質折疊、修飾和質量控制信號轉導途徑單元周期和檢查點細胞死亡自噬新陳代謝我們歡迎以下意見:為該雜志所涵蓋的途徑提供有趣的力學見解，并將這些途徑與重要的生物學和疾病背景聯系起來使用大規模、系統級和高吞吐量的數據集來獲得其他方法難以獲得的新的生物學見解報告新的試劑、方法和工具(或對現有工具的重大改進)，這些對在該雜志涵蓋的領域工作的科學家具有廣泛的價值和實用價值。我們對回答長期存在的問題、開辟新的研究途徑、報告意外發現或改變我們思考生物過程的方式的論文特別感興趣。

Molecular Cell aims to publish the best research in molecular biology. The journal covers core cellular processes, including:DNA replication, recombination, and repair Chromatin biology and genome organizationTranscriptionRNA processing and decayNon-coding RNA functionTranslationProtein folding, modification, and quality controlSignal transduction pathwaysCell cycle and checkpoints Cell deathAutophagyMetabolismWe welcome submissions that:Provide interesting mechanistic insights into the pathways covered by the journal, and that connect these pathways to important biological and disease contextsUse large-scale, systems-level, and high-throughput datasets to derive new biological insights not easily obtained by other approachesReport new reagents, methods, and tools (or significant improvements to existing tools) that are of broad value and utility to scientists working in the fields covered by the journal.We are particularly interested in papers that answer longstanding questions, open new avenues of research, report unexpected findings, or change the way we think about biological processes.
