Supplemental Figure 9. Inverse correlation between ORF length and ribosome density observed by Northern analysis in mouse cellsCataldo L. et. al. (1999 Mol. Human Reproduction, 5: 206-213) analyzed the ribosomal association of several mouse mRNAs by Northern analysis (listed below). The ribosome density for each ORF length is plotted. The plot reveals an inverse correlation (Spearman rank (rs) of -0.81), similar to the one we observe in yeast using DNA microarrays. Excluding the data point for PolyA binding protein (1908 nts) had a negligable effect on the correlation (rs = -0.75). |
