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
The galactose operon encoding a repressor and genes for the Leloir pathway for galactose metabolism (galactokinase, galactose-1-phosphate-uridyl transferase and UDP glucose-4-epimerase) was located adjacent to the multiple sugar metabolism (msm) operon on the chromosome of Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt (serotype c) and the complete nucleotide sequence of this 5-kilobase region was determined. The Leloir pathway was induced by the presence of galactose in the growth medium or following the release of intracellular galactose after uptake and cleavage of α-galactosides by the multiple sugar metabolism system. Analysis of the mechanism of galactose transport confirmed the absence of a galactose-specific phosphotransferase system and suggested the presence of an inducible galactose permease. Evidence is presented that galactose transport is independent of the proton motive force and may be ATP-dependent.
