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
Binding of herbicides to photosystem II inhibits the electron transfer from Q A to Q B due to competition of herbicides with plastoquinone bound at the Q B site. We investigated herbicide binding to monomeric and dimeric photosystem II core complexes (PSIIcc) isolated from Thermosynechococcus elongatus by a combination of different methods (isothermal titration and differential scanning calorimetry, CD spectroscopy and measurements of the oxygen evolution) yielding binding constants, enthalpies and stoichiometries for various herbicides as well as information regarding stabilization/destabilization of the complex. Herbicide binding to detergent-solubilized PSIIcc can be described by a model of single independent binding sites present on this important membrane protein. Interestingly, binding stoichiometries herbicide:PSIIcc are lower than 1:1 and vary depending on the herbicide under study. Strong binding herbicides such as terbutryn stabilize PSIIcc in thermal unfolding experiments and endothermically binding herbicides like ioxynil probably cause large structural changes accompanied with the binding process as shown by differential scanning calorimetry experiments of the unfolding reaction of PSIIcc monomer in the presence of ioxynil. In addition we studied the occupancy of the Q B sites with plastoquinone (PQ9) by measuring flash induced fluorescence relaxation yielding a possible explanation for the deviations of herbicide binding from a 1:1 herbicide/binding site model.
