JOURNAL OF NATURAL PRODUCTS

《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。

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.
