| Comments |
"The mass of ribosomal RNA per cell (mrRNA) measured in
the studies of E. coli, S. coelicolor, M. bovis, S. cerevisiae (two
studies), and N. crassa (Table 3) allowed [investigators] to estimate the
cellular requirement of ribosomes for protein synthesis in
the organisms as functions of the growth conditions by
calculating the number of ribosomes and the peptide
elongation rate (PER)." |
