| Method |
From first column in table: (ATP requirement for Protein polymerisation)/(ATP requirements for Polysaccharide +Protein polymerisation + amino acid formation + lipid + RNA (nucleoside monophosphate formation+ polymerisation) + DNA (deoxynucleoside monophosphate formation+ polymerisation) + mRNA turnover)=(ATP for protein polymerisation)/(ATP for protein polymerisation + ATP for the rest)=191.4/(191.4+103.63)=0.649 |
| Comments |
The actual consumption is much higher due to processes such as membrane leakage and ion transport and thus the fraction explained by translation is smaller. Table gives ATP requirement for the formation of microbial cells from glucose and inorganic salts and the influence of various additions (amino acids and nucleic acid bases).
