Open Access Articles Bio-Organic Chemistry

The field of study includes metabolism, biosynthesis, transformation, elimination reactions of organic element is bio organic chemistry. There are many journals/ articles/ review papers/ research articles are available online and most of them are international peer reviewed open access journals. The high impact factor journals shows the quality of research and acceptance by readers.

Bioorganic chemistry is a rapidly growing scientific discipline that combines organic chemistry and biochemistry. It is that branch of life science that deals with the study of biological processes using chemical methods. Protein and enzyme function are examples of these processes.

Sometimes biochemistry is used interchangeably for bioorganic chemistry; the distinction being that bioorganic chemistry is organic chemistry that is focused on the biological aspects. While biochemistry aims at understanding biological processes using chemistry, bioorganic chemistry attempts to expand organic-chemical researches (that is, structures, synthesis, and kinetics) toward biology. When investigating metalloenzymes and cofactors, bioorganic chemistry overlaps bioinorganic chemistry.

Bioorganic Chemistry and Chemical Biology, broadly defined, are fields in which organic synthetic chemistry plays a significant role in the life sciences. These disciplines include topics such as small molecule sensing and molecular recognition, nucleic acid chemistry and biochemistry, bio-inspired catalysis, structure-function studies of therapeutics, and bioconjugates. Students focused on this area at Oregon develop a solid foundation in synthetic chemistry and also benefit from the outstanding biochemistry/molecular biology research environment at UO.
