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
To assess the availability of Ca in the lumen of the thylakoid membrane that is required to support the assembly of the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II, we have investigated the mechanism of Ca transport into the lumen of pea (Pisum sativum) thylakoid membranes using silicone-oil centrifugation. Transthylakoid Ca transport is dependent on light or, in the dark, on exogenously added ATP. Both light and ATP hydrolysis are coupled to Ca transport through the formation of a transthylakoid pH gradient. The H-transporting ionophores nigericin/K and carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone inhibit the transport of Ca. Thylakoid membranes are capable of accumulating up to 30 nmol Ca mg chlorophyll from external concentrations of 15 μM over the course of a 15-min reaction. These results are consistent with the presence of an active Ca/H antiport in the thylakoid membrane. Ca transport across the thylakoid membrane has significant implications for chloroplast and plant Ca homeostasis. We propose a model of chloroplast Ca regulation whereby the activity of the Ca/H antiporter facilitates the light-dependent uptake of Ca by chloroplasts and reduces stromal Ca levels.
