JOURNAL OF NATURAL PRODUCTS

The Journal of Natural Products invites and publishes papers that make substantial and scholarly contributions to the area of natural products research. Contributions may relate to the chemistry and/or biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds or the biology of living systems from which they are obtained.Specifically, there may be articles that describe secondary metabolites of microorganisms, including antibiotics and mycotoxins; physiologically active compounds from terrestrial and marine plants and animals; biochemical studies, including biosynthesis and microbiological transformations; fermentation and plant tissue culture; the isolation, structure elucidation, and chemical synthesis of novel compounds from nature; and the pharmacology of compounds of natural origin.When new compounds are reported, manuscripts describing their biological activity are much preferred.

《自然产品杂志》邀请并发表对自然产品研究领域做出重大学术贡献的论文。贡献可能与自然产生的化合物的化学和/或生物化学或从中获得它们的生物系统有关。具体来说，可能有文章描述微生物的次生代谢产物，包括抗生素和霉菌毒素;陆地和海洋动植物中具有生理活性的化合物;生物化学研究，包括生物合成和微生物转化;发酵和植物组织培养;从自然界中分离、结构阐明和化学合成新化合物;以及天然化合物的药理学。当新化合物被报道时，描述其生物活性的手稿更受欢迎。
