| Comments | "Ribosomal proteins (apart from L7/L12) are each thought to be produced in the same amount, slightly less than 1 percent of total protein production (Ingraham, Maaloe and Neidhardt 1983) the selective disadvantage of a ribosomal protein codon outside the initiation region translated by a rare tRNA is thus about 10^-4." |
