Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Drosophila alcohol dehydrogenase (DADH) is an NAD + -dependent enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes/ketones. DADH is the member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases family (SDR) for which the largest amount of biochemical data has been gathered during the last three decades. The crystal structures of one binary form (NAD + ) and three ternary complexes with NAD + ·acetone, NAD + ·3-pentanone and NAD + ·cyclohexanone were solved at 2.4, 2.2, 1.4 and 1.6 Å resolution, respectively. From the molecular interactions observed, the reaction mechanism could be inferred. The structure of DADH undergoes a conformational change in order to bind the coenzyme. Furthermore, upon binding of the ketone, a region that was disordered in the apo form (186–191) gets stabilized and closes the active site cavity by creating either a small helix (NAD + ·acetone, NAD + ·3-pentanone) or an ordered loop (NAD + ·cyclohexanone). The active site pocket comprises a hydrophobic bifurcated cavity which explains why the enzyme is more efficient in oxidizing secondary aliphatic alcohols (preferably R form) than primary ones. Difference Fourier maps showed that the ketone inhibitor molecule has undergone a covalent reaction with the coenzyme in all three ternary complexes. Due to the presence of the positively charged ring of the coenzyme (NAD + ) and the residue Lys155, the amino acid Tyr151 is in its deprotonated (tyrosinate) state at physiological pH. Tyr151 can subtract a proton from the enolic form of the ketone and catalyze a nucleophilic attack of the C α atom to the C4 position of the coenzyme creating an NAD-ketone adduct. The binding of these NAD-ketone adducts to DADH accounts for the inactivation of the enzyme. The catalytic reaction proceeds in a similar way, involving the same amino acids as in the formation of the NAD-ketone adduct. The p K a value of 9–9.5 obtained by kinetic measurements on apo DADH can be assigned to a protonated Tyr151 which is converted to an unprotonated tyrosinate (p K a 7.6) by the influence of the positively charged nicotinamide ring in the binary enzyme-NAD + form. pH independence during the release of NADH from the binary complex enzyme-NADH can be explained by either a lack of electrostatic interaction between the coenzyme and Tyr151 or an apparent p K a value for this residue higher than 10.0.
