Abstract

Chlorotoxin is a small scorpion peptide that inhibits glioma cell migration. We investigated the importance of a major component of chlorotoxin's chemical structure - four disulfide bonds - to its tertiary structure and biological function.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 24 January 2023.
All research outputs
#8,543,498
of 25,393,528 outputs
Outputs from Future Medicinal Chemistry
#378
of 1,195 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#88,435
of 265,694 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Future Medicinal Chemistry
#6
of 34 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,393,528 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,195 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its peers.
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 265,694 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 34 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
