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 concept of mismatch repair (MMR) was formulated independently in 1964 to explain the removal of brominated nucleotides from DNA as well as gene conversion during genetic recombination. In the intervening 40 years, the field has developed incrementally, punctuated by a number of transformative genetic and biochemical studies. Two core MMR genes, MutS and MutL, have been conserved throughout life on earth. Defects in human MutS homologues (MSH) and MutL homologues (MLH/PMS) cause the common cancer predisposition Lynch syndrom or hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (LS/HNPCC). Work on the mechanism of MMR has been significantly aided by completely defined biochemical systems in vitro as well as several crystal snapshots that depict critical intermediates. It has been mired by unseemly biochemical conditions and misinterpretation. The contemporary use of real-time single molecule imaging has the potential to finally and fully resolve the mechanics of MMR. This review describes genetic, biochemical, and biophysical studies that contributed to the development of models for MMR.
