Method |
P.337 right column top paragraph: "Newly synthesized RNA can be labelled with the nucleoside analogue 4-thiouridine (4sU).
4sU-containing mRNA can be purified and compared with the preexisting fraction to compute mRNA half-lives [ref 10]." See model in p.339 fig. 3a |
Comments |
P.339 left column bottom paragraph: "Average cellular transcription rates predicted by the model spanned two orders of magnitude with a median of about two mRNA molecules per hour [Fig. 3b]. An extreme example was Mdm2 with more than 500 mRNAs per hour." NIH3T3 (mouse fibroblast) cells. |
