The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology advances scientific knowledge by reducing barriers to research. ASBMB journals are gold open access.
Who we are and what we do: Founded in 1906, the ASBMB has advanced science discoveries in the life sciences by publishing and promoting the highest-quality research in biochemistry and molecular biology.
Why us?: ASBMB journals are committed to helping scientists disseminate their findings in the most efficient and effective way. We strive to keep review times short, provide useful feedback and promote contributions after publication.
Journal of Biological Chemistry
The Journal of Biological Chemistry seeks to elucidate the molecular and cellular basis of biological processes. In addition, JBC welcomes articles that describe methods that will help scientists push their biochemical inquiries forward and resources that will be of use to the research community.
All accepted manuscripts are available to the public for free within 48 hours of acceptance. The average time from submission to first decision is 21 days for regular articles and even shorter for JBC Communications.
Molecular & Cellular Proteomics
Molecular & Cellular Proteomics publishes articles such as research articles, reviews, technological innovation resources and perspectives, that make a substantial contribution to the understanding of any area of proteomics. MCP has been a leading force in setting up the standards for proteomics reporting by creating guidelines for mass spectrometric analyses covering protein, peptide or post translational modifications and quantification.

Journal of Lipid Research
The Journal of Lipid Research focuses on the science of lipids in health and disease. The journal emphasizes lipid function and the biochemical and genetic regulation of lipid metabolism and aims to be on the forefront of the emerging areas of genomics, proteomics, metabolomics and lipidomics as they relate to lipid metabolism and function. In addition, JLR publishes manuscripts on patient-oriented and epidemiological research relating to altered lipid metabolism, including modification of dietary lipids.
ASBMB Today
ASBMB Today is the society's news magazine, containing extensive coverage of awards, meetings, research highlights, job placements and human interest articles.
Members joined these committees: Education and Professional Development, Maximizing Access, Meetings, Membership, Public Affairs Advisory, Science Outreach and Communication, Student Chapters and Women in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
