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
Saccharomyces cerevisiae can either import amino acids from the surrounding or synthesize inside the cell, and both processes are tightly regulated. Disruption of such regulation can result in amino acid toxicity to the cell through mechanisms that are poorly understood. In this study we make use of a mutant strain with deregulated general amino acid permease gene whose growth is inhibited by low concentrations of several amino acids. We carry out multicopy suppression screen with several toxic amino acids and identify MCH4 as a gene that suppresses inhibitory effects of glycine. We find that expression of MCH4 is regulated by osmotic shock but not other kinds of stress. These findings are discussed in the context of possible mechanisms of amino acid toxicity.
