Molecular and Cellular Biology is mainly concerned with subjects like Molecular biology, Cell biology, Genetics, Gene and Biochemistry. Molecular biology research presented in Molecular and Cellular Biology encompasses a variety of subjects, including Promoter, Gene expression, Transcription factor, Regulation of gene expression and Transcription (biology). Some problems in Transcription factor that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Cellular differentiation and Binding site.
Cell biology study tackled is connected to the field of Cell cycle. Chromatin, RNA splicing and Locus (genetics) studies are all carried out as a component of the study in Genetics presented. While it focused on RNA splicing, it was also able to explore topics like Intron and Exon.
The journal links adjacent topics like Gene with DNA. Molecular and Cellular Biology primarily discusses Biochemistry topics, particularly Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Peptide sequence. Discussions in the journal are anchored in the subject of Signal transduction and the similar topic of Cancer research.
The journal papers primarily tackle Molecular biology, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Transcription factor and Genetics. The most cited publications hold forums on Molecular biology that merge themes from other disciplines such as Regulation of gene expression, Transcription (biology), Gene expression, Gene and DNA-binding protein. The journal publications explore topics in Transcription factor which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Promoter and Binding site.
The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Cell biology, Cancer research, microRNA, Gene and Transcription factor. Molecular and Cellular Biology is focused mainly on Cell biology, particularly Kinase. The concepts on Cancer research presented in it can also apply to other research fields, including Cell growth, Apoptosis, Gene knockdown, Carcinogenesis and Chromatin immunoprecipitation.
The Gene research dealing mostly with Gene expression is the focus of it. It explores issues in Transcription factor which can be linked to other research areas like Epithelial–mesenchymal transition, Transcriptome, Immune system, NF-κB and Regulator. Issues in Downregulation and upregulation were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Viability assay, Cell culture and Molecular biology.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Molecular and Cellular Biology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Molecular and Cellular Biology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 2.56% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 19.74% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.26% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 3.95% of all publications and 71.05% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
