Biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes in living organisms. It deals with the structure and function of cellular components, such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids and other biomolecules. This category includes the fields of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Molecular Genetics and Proteomics.
This category is for sites about university departments doing scientific research and providing scientific educational programs in biochemistry or molecular biology.

This category links organizations which themselves do not conduct scientific research, but aim to spread information about research results in the field of biochemistry and molecular biology. These associations organize meetings, provide research grants and other activities for scientists in the field. Any scientist active in the field should be able to become member of such an organization.

This category classifies sites according to the molecules of primary interest. These molecules differ from Organic Chemicals in that they were discovered from their synthesis within living cells. Originally these would be extracted from plants or animals. Many biomolecules can now be produced synthetically from simple chemicals; sugars, amino acids, steroids or drugs that mimic their effects.More often the term biomolecule, applies to macromolecules which are polymers ofsugars: oligosaccharidesamino acids: peptides and proteinsnucleotides: oligonucleotides, DNA and RNASites primarily covering translocation of DNA and translation of RNA, may be found in Gene_ExpressionFor sites on the role of cyclic nucleotides and phosphoinositols in their biochemical role, see Signal_TransductionSteroids and Prostaglandins are currently included in Carbohydrates_and_Lipids.

Includes sites related to processes of the Central Dogma of Genetics: transcriotion to mRNA, mRNA splicing, translation to polypeptides, modification of the resulting polypeptides by specific proteolysis and conjugation to carbohydrates, lipids and prosthetic groups. Also includes control of the processes: pre-transcriptional by factors controlling transcription to mRNA and post-transcriptional control by RNA interference (iRNA). A separate sub-category includes sites related to viral reverse transcription.
