Chemical biology is a scientific discipline between the fields of chemistry and biology. The discipline involves the application of chemical techniques, analysis, and often small molecules produced through synthetic chemistry, to the study and manipulation of biological systems. [1]

Biochemistry is the study of the chemical substances and vital processes occurring in live organisms. Biochemists focus heavily on the role, function, and structure of biomolecules. The study of the chemistry behind biological processes and the synthesis of biologically active molecules are applications of biochemistry.

The Journal of Biological Chemistry (JBC) welcomes high-quality science that seeks to elucidate the molecular and cellular basis of biological processes.

PubChem is the world's largest collection of freely accessible chemical information. Search chemicals by name, molecular formula, structure, and other identifiers. Find chemical and physical properties, biological activities, safety and toxicity information, patents, …

2017年4月27日 · Chemical biology adds chemical compounds to biological systems in order to see what effect these chemicals have on cells and tissues. Chemical biologists often synthesize and add new compounds to cells.

2024年7月23日 · Nature Chemical Biology is an international journal publishing research and commentary at the interface of chemistry, biology and allied disciplines.

2025年1月4日 · Biochemistry is the study of the chemical substances and processes that occur in plants, animals, and microorganisms and of the changes they undergo during development and life.

2022年9月17日 · Chemical Biology or biochemistry studies the tools of chemistry and synthesis to understand biology and disease pathways at the molecular level. Advanced Biological Chemistry interests include diverse topics such as nucleic acids, DNA repair, bioconjugate chemistry, peptides and peptidomimetics, glycoscience, biomolecular structure and function ...

Understanding which biological molecules are acids and which are bases can be important in predicting a variety of behaviours in biological systems, for example in determining catalytic mechanisms. Acids and bases can be strong or weak.

This course examines the chemical and physical properties of the cell and its building blocks, with special emphasis on the structures of proteins and principles of catalysis, as well as the chemistry of organic / inorganic cofactors required for chemical transformations within the cell.
