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.

Thesis / Dissertation Description
Bovine Pancreatic Ribonuclease-S hydrolzes RNA molecules in a two step mechanism: 1. transphosphorylation, and 2. hydrolysis. The mechanism of the enzyme is studied using a model substrate for RNA, 2-hydroxyethyl methyl phosphate union. Electronic structure calculations are done at the CNDO/2 level, using the CININ optimization routine to minimize geometries. Two possible reaction paths are plotted for each step of the reaction, with the lowest activation energy path assumed to be the one taken by RNA. CNDO/2 results, however, yield negative activation anaeroles, a physically impossible result.
