Branched actin filament networks driving cell motility, endocytosis, and intracellular transport are assembled in seconds by the Arp2/3 complex and must be equally rapidly debranched and turned over. One of the only factors known to promote debranching of actin networks is the yeast homolog of glia maturation factor (GMF), which is structurally related to the actin filament-severing protein cofilin. However, the identity of the molecular mechanism underlying debranching and whether this activity extends to mammalian GMF have remained open questions.
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 26 February 2014.
All research outputs
#11,212,123
of 31,814,824 outputs
Outputs from Current Biology
#11,120
of 16,520 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#86,202
of 229,250 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Biology
#103
of 162 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,814,824 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 16,520 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 63.9. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% 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 229,250 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 162 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
