Abstract

The molar translation yield of a given messenger RNA, that is, the frequency of translation of this mRNA, is not a constant property, but is subject to regulation. Experimentally, this is observed by a shift in the relative amounts of individual proteins synthesized as a function of (a) the rate of overall protein synthesis and (b) the amounts and types of mRNA present.
