| Abstract |
Enolase, a key glycolytic enzyme, belongs to a novel class of surface proteins which do not possess classical machinery for surface transport, yet through an unknown mechanism are transported on the cell surface. Enolase is a multifunctional protein, and its ability to serve as a plasminogen receptor on the surface of a variety of hematopoetic, epithelial and endothelial cells suggests that it may play an important role in the intravascular and pericellular fibrinolytic system. Its role in systemic and invasive autoimmune disorders was recognized only very recently. In addition to this property, its ability to function as a heat-shock protein and to bind cytoskeletal and chromatin structures indicate that enolase may play a crucial role in transcription and a variety of pathophysiological processes. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. 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 September 2022.
All research outputs
#5,446,210
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences
#1,185
of 5,876 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#7,012
of 41,874 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences
#7
of 19 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 75th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,876 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% 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 41,874 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 71% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 19 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its contemporaries.
