Comments |
"...estimates enable rough comparison of [researchers']
results to a recent model diffusion calculation treating
cytoplasmic elements as appropriately sized hard
spheres and including hydrodynamic interactions (primary source). The biopolymer mass density in the
model cytoplasm varied from 250 to 350 mg ml-1, with the
mole fraction of each component (proteins and ribosomes)
derived from content measurements and kept
constant." |
