Metric Options: CountsSelecting 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.

Book Chapter Description
The type III secretion system (T3SS) is an essential virulence factor of many pathogenic bacterial species including Salmonella, Yersinia, Shigella and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC). It is an intricate molecular machine that spans the bacterial membranes and injects effector proteins into target host cells, enabling bacterial infection. The T3SS needle complex comprises of proteinaceous rings supporting a needle filament which extends out into the extracellular environment. It serves as the central conduit for translocating effector proteins. Multiple laboratories have dedicated a remarkable effort to decipher the structure and function of the needle complex. A combination of structural biology techniques such as cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM), X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and computer modelling have been utilized to study different structural components at progressively higher resolutions. This chapter will provide an overview of the structural details of the T3SS needle complex, shedding light on this essential component of this fascinating bacterial system.
