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
In eukaryotic organisms, hydrogen peroxide has a dual effect; it is potentially toxic for the cell but also has an important signaling activity. According to the previously proposed floodgate hypothesis, the signaling activity of hydrogen peroxide in eukaryotes requires a transient increase in its concentration, which is due to the inactivation by overoxidation of 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (2-Cys Prx). Sensitivity to overoxidation depends on the structural GGLG and YF motifs present in eukaryotic 2-Cys Prxs and is believed to be absent from prokaryotic enzymes, thus representing a paradoxical gain of function exclusive to eukaryotic organisms. Here we show that 2-Cys Prxs from several prokaryotic organisms, including cyanobacteria, contain the GG(L/V/I)G and YF motifs characteristic of sensitive enzymes. In search of the existence of overoxidation-sensitive 2-Cys Prxs in prokaryotes, we have analyzed the sensitivity to overoxidation of 2-Cys Prxs from two cyanobacterial strains, Anabaena sp. PCC7120 and Synechocystis sp. PCC6803. In vitro analysis of wild type and mutant variants of the Anabaena 2-Cys Prx showed that this enzyme is overoxidized at the peroxidatic cysteine residue, thus constituting an exception among prokaryotes. Moreover, the 2-Cys Prx from Anabaena is readily and reversibly overoxidized in vivo in response to high light and hydrogen peroxide, showing higher sensitivity to overoxidation than the Synechocystis enzyme. These cyanobacterial strains have different strategies to cope with hydrogen peroxide. While Synechocystis has low content of less sensitive 2-Cys Prx and high catalase activity, Anabaena contains abundant and sensitive 2-Cys Prx, but low catalase activity, which is remarkably similar to the chloroplast system.
