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
Some annexins, including annexins I, II, IV, and VII, can promote membrane aggregation. To identify amino acids involved in annexin I-mediated membrane aggregation, we generated truncated mutants of human annexin I lacking various parts of the amino terminus. The in vitro vesicle binding and aggregation activities of these mutants indicated that both the amino- terminal region of annexin I spanning residues 26-29 and the carboxy-terminal core are involved in membrane aggregation. This notion was further supported by the finding that a chimera composed of residues 24-35 of annexin I and the core of annexin V has vesicle aggregation activity that is significantly higher than that of annexin V but lower than that of annexin I. Further site- specific mutations in the amino-terminal region of annexin I indicated that Lys-26 and Lys-29 are essential for its membrane aggregation activity. The comparison of tryptic digest patterns of free and vesicle-bound wild type and K29E mutant suggests that a primary role of Lys-26 and Lys-29 is to induce and stabilize an active conformation of annexin I for vesicle aggregation.
