Nature Structural & Molecular Biology is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal publishing research articles, reviews, news, and commentaries in structural and molecular biology, with an emphasis on papers that further a "functional and mechanistic understanding of how molecular components in a biological process work together".[1]

It is published by the Nature Publishing Group and was established in 1994 under the title Nature Structural Biology, obtaining its current title in January 2004. Like other Nature journals, there is no external editorial board, with editorial decisions being made by an in-house team, although peer review by external expert referees forms a part of the review process.

Articles are archived online in text and PDF formats; access is by subscription only.[2]

According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal had a 2014 impact factor of 13.309, ranking it 7th out of 289 journals in the category "Biochemistry & Molecular Biology",[3] 2nd out of 73 journals in the category "Biophysics",[4] and 12th out of 184 journals in the category "Cell Biology".[5]
