| 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 peak number density within
ribosome-rich regions varies from 56,000 to 73,000 ribosomes
per cubic micrometre (Fig. S6) with a mean of 65,000 ribosomes per cubic micrometre." |
