Abstract

All sequenced genomes of representatives of the Francisella genus contain two rpoA genes, which encode non-identical RNA polymerase (RNAP) subunits, α1 and α2. In all other bacteria studied to date, a dimer of identical α subunits initiates the assembly of the catalytically proficient RNAP core (subunit composition α2ββ'). Based on an observation that both α1 and α2 are incorporated into Francisella RNAP, Charity et al. (2007) previously suggested that up to four different species of RNAP core enzyme might form in the same Francisella cell.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 November 2011.
All research outputs
#22,758,309
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from BMC Molecular and Cell Biology
#1,054
of 1,233 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#225,205
of 245,487 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Molecular and Cell Biology
#22
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,233 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 245,487 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
