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
A lambda gt11 cDNA library was constructed from poly(A+) RNA isolated from aortic tissue of neonatal rats and screened with a human tropoelastin cDNA clone. DNA sequence analysis of several overlapping rat clones confirmed the presence of DNA sequences coding for murine tropoelastin and DNA sequences coding for the 3′-untranslated region of the rat tropoelastin mRNA. Northern blot analysis of total RNA from aortic tissue of neonatal rats using oligonucleotide probes derived from these rat tropoelastin cDNAs demonstrated the presence of a 3.5-kilobase tropoelastin mRNA. The size of this rat tropoelastin mRNA agrees with previous reports for the size of the mRNA coding for tropoelastin in tissue from several vertebrate species but contrasts with several reports suggesting the presence of a higher molecular weight mRNA species responsible for the synthesis of tropoelastin in rodent tissue.
