| Abstract |
Parasites from the phylum Apicomplexa include causative agents of serious diseases including malaria (Plasmodium spp.) and toxoplasmosis (Toxoplasma gondii). Apicomplexan parasites infect thousands of types of animal cells and send their proteins to an array of compartments within their own cell, as well as exporting proteins into and beyond their host cell. Ascertaining destinations to which individual proteins are delivered allows researchers to better understand parasite biology and to identify potential targets for therapeutic interventions. Our toolkit for establishing subcellular locations of apicomplexan proteins is becoming more extensive and specialized, and here we review developments in this technology. |

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 06 December 2012.
All research outputs
#20,655,488
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Trends in Parasitology
#2,168
of 2,303 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#147,765
of 189,075 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Trends in Parasitology
#19
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,303 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.6. This one is in the 2nd percentile – i.e., 2% 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 189,075 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 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.
