| Method |
Two complementary approaches were
taken to quantify cytosolic and plastid ribosomes: The first approach used qRT–PCR. The second approach used relative quantitative proteomics
based on emPAI values (Ishihama et al, 2005) to estimate the
abundance of ribosomal proteins in the polysome gradient
fractions. |
| Comments |
The proportion of a transcript present in polysomes
is often termed ‘ribosome occupancy'. |
