| Comments |
"For each cell, the corrected fluorescence intensity
and the known cell geometry then enables estimation
of the average ribosome number density (i.e. the average
concentration over the entire cytoplasmic volume) and
the peak ribosome number density in the ribosome-rich
regions. The average ribosome number density varies
from 25,000 to 31,000 ribosomes per cubic micrometre
(Fig. S6) with a mean across cells of 27,000 ribosomes
per cubic micrometre." |
