Delighted to share our new pre-print on translational activity of 80S monosomes. @AlbertBlandy @EltonVasconcel8 @AmyTurn67763683 @LabFontana @MichaelaAgapiou Thanks to @BBSRC and @wellcometrust. Great for this work to benefit from @RiboCode team input biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Translational activity of 80S monosomes varies dramatically across different tissues

Summary Translational regulation at the stage of initiation can impact the number of ribosomes translating each mRNA molecule. However, the translational activity of single 80S ribosomes (monosomes)...
