P.987 left column 4th paragraph: "In summary, here [investigators] have developed an imaging method that
enables the measurement of ribosome initiation and translocation rates on single mRNA molecules in live cells." P.987 left column bottom paragraph: "U2OS [human osteosarcoma U2OS cell line] and HEK293 [Human Embryonic Kidney 293 cell] cells were grown in DMEM/5% with Pen/Strep." |
Comments |
P.979 left column 3rd paragraph: "Because single mRNAs were tethered to the plasma membrane through multiple PP7 [bacteriophage coat protein] molecules and thus through many CAAX membrane insertion domains, the 2D diffusion of mRNAs was extremely slow (1.06 × 10^−3 μm^2/s, n = 211 mRNAs). This slow diffusion made it possible to track individual mRNAs and their associated translation sites for extended periods of time (mean tracking time >1 hr) (Figure S1C)." |
