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.

Article Description
The structural gene entC3, which encodes staphylococcal enterotoxin C3 was cloned from the genome of Staphylococcus aureus FRI-913 and sequenced. The primary amino acid sequence of the toxin was deduced from the nucleotide sequence data. entC3 contains 801 by and encodes a precursor protein of 266 amino acids. Glutamic acid was found to be the N-terminus of mature enterotoxin C3. Thus, the first 27 residues of the toxin precursor comprise the signal peptide, and the mature toxin contains 239 amino acids with a molecular weight of 27 563 daltons. Enterotoxin C3 differs from enterotoxin C2 by four amino acids and from enterotoxin C1 by nine residues. The 167 C-terminal residues of the three toxins are identical, except for one conservative amino acid substitution in enterotoxin C3. The degree of immunological relatedness among the three Type C enterotoxins is proportional to their molecular relatedness. This study also provides evidence that the N-termini of Type C enterotoxins determine subtype-specific antigenic epitopes, while more conserved C-terminal regions determine biological properties and cross-reactive antigenic epitopes shared with other pyrogenic toxins. © 1990 Springer-Verlag.
