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
The reaction of the 5′-AMP with water soluble carbodiimide (EDAC) in the presence of Na-montmorillonite 22A results in the formation of 2′,5′-(pA) (18.9%), 3′,5′-(pA) (11%), and AppA (4.8%). When poly(U) is used in place of the clay the product yields are 2′,5′-(pA) (15.5%), 3′,5′-(pA) (3.7%) and AppA (14.9%). The 3′,5′-cyclic dinucleotide, 3′,5′-c(pA), is also formed when poly(U) is used. AppA is the principal reaction product when neither clay nor poly(U) is present in the reaction mixture. Products which contain the phophodiester bond are formed at different ionic strengths, pH and temperatures using Na-montmorillonite. Phosphodiester bond formation was not observed when Cu-montmorillonite was used or when DISN was used in the place of EDAC. The extent catalysis of phophodiester bond formation varied with the particular clay mineral used. Those Na-clays which bind 5′-AMP more strongly are better catalysts. Cu-montmorillonite, which binds 5′-AMP strongly, exhibits no catalytic activity. © 1989 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
