Impact Factor = 13.61, published by Cold Spring Harbor, 1995-
An international, continuously published, peer-reviewed journal that focuses on research that provides novel insights into the genome biology of all organisms, including advances in genomic medicine.

Impact Factor = 9.04, published by BioMed Central, 2000-
Forum for the dissemination, discussion and critical review of information about all areas of biology informed by genomic research. Key objectives are to provide a guide to the rapidly developing resources and technology in genomics and its impact on biological research, to publish large datasets and extensive results that are not readily accommodated in traditional journals, and to help establish new standards and nomenclature for post-genomic biology.

Impact Factor = 8.63, published by Nature, 2005-.
An online-only, open access journal, ... covers all aspects of the rapidly growing and interdisciplinary field of systems biology at the molecular level, and will attract and help shape the highest quality research in the evolving areas of genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics, microbial systems, and the integration of cell signaling and regulatory networks.

Impact Factor = 8.03, published by Oxford Univ. Press, 1974-.
Now following an OpenAccess model, free to all, NAR "publishes the results of leading edge research into physical, chemical, biochemical and biological aspects of nucleic acids and proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism and/or interactions." Includes separate NAR Methods Online & annual Databases & Web Server issues.

Impact Factor = 7.4, published by Am. Soc. for Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, 2002-.
The scope of the journal, reflected in its title, is purposefully broad. ... open to contributions that describe the structural and functional properties of proteins and their expression, particularly with respect to developmental time courses. Emphasis will be placed on determining how the presence or absence of proteins affect biological responses, and how the interaction of proteins with germane cellular partners allows them to function.

Impact Factor = 5.47, published by Oxford Univ. Press, 1998-.
Publishes the highest quality scientific papers and review articles of interest to academic and industrial researchers. Its main focus is on new developments in genome bioinformatics and computational biology.
