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
Xenopus adult muscle, whole Xenopus embryos, and cultured embryonic myocytes together contain five acetylcholinesterase forms which can be resolved by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. These are identified as the collagenase-sensitive asymmetric forms A 12 and A 8, and the globular forms G 4, G 2, and G 1. Asymmetric forms rise in whole embryos during the period of neuromuscular synapse formation, but their rise is not prevented by tricaine methanesulfonate, which abolishes motor activity. Aneural myocyte cultures synthesize primarily asymmetric acetylcholinesterase, much of which is extracellular. Prior nerve contact is not required for its expression. The proportion of asymmetric forms is neither decreased by tetrodotoxin, nor enhanced by veratridine and aconitine. We conclude that muscle activity does not modulate the expression of asymmetric acetylcholinesterase in Xenopus.
