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
Retrovirus infectivity is the result of a cooperative interaction of three structural genes, gag, pol, and env. Since the L-cell endogenous retrovirus (LCV) lacks the env gene translation product, our aim was to study the biological and molecular basis of its non-infectiousness. Fusion experiments between LCV and homologous or heterologous cells demonstrated that virus production could be obtained only after LCV artificial penetration in murine cells and that the new progeny was still noninfectious. Northern blot analysis and heteroduplex mapping of the genomic RNA revealed a 0.99 kb deletion including the 3′ region of the pol reading frame, the whole xenotropic and part of the ecotropic domain of the env gene. The results suggest that the observed deletion is responsible for the absence of the gp 70 and the gp 15 E molecules in the virion and seems therefore to be the molecular basis for the non-infectiousness of this retrovirus. © 1988 Springer-Verlag.
