| Method |
Calculated from data in leftmost column in table link in ref and according to average molecular mass of RNA nucleotide in E. coli of 324 Da (Primary source): (324[g per mole]/Avogadro's constant[nmber of dNTPs])X(number of RNA nucleotides per OD460)/(number of cells per OD460)=weight [g/cell]:(324/(6X10^23))X(4.3X10^16)/(11.7X10^8)=19.9X10^-15 g |
| Comments |
Out of cell dry mass of 148X10^-15 g at this doubling time. Reference table gives Protein/mass, RNA/mass, DNA/mass, cell no./mass, protein/genome, RNA/genome, origins/genome, protein/origin and more parameters at 5 different doubling times |
