| Comments |
p.4 right column bottom paragraph:"...if [investigators] assume on average three ribosomes loaded per mRNA message (primary source), [they] find that the average translation rate for an individual ribosome is about eight amino acids per second. This rate is consistent with the translation rates of previous studies (refs 23,24)." |
