Comments |
"With a worm-like chain model (Supplemental Experimental
Procedures), [researchers] estimated an additional number of 46 ± 6 nucleotides
bridging adjacent mRNA exit and entry points, giving,
on average, a total of up to 72 nucleotides between codon
recognition sites. This would correspond to a difference in length
of 24 residues of nascent peptides between neighboring
ribosomes." |
