It really depends on what discipline of biology you are interested in. Nature and Science are great, and cover some very interesting research, but they are quite multi-disciplinary.
For example, for all things pharmacology the British Journal of Pharmacology (pubslihed by Nature group) is very good. For all things regarding the extracellular matrix Matrix Biology is very good. And so on.
