Abstract excerpt
We have found a simple relationship between bacterial growth rate and the translation elongation rate. Thus, for a set of defined ribosomal protein S12 mutations which reduce the efficiency of the ternary complex ribosome interaction (and restrict the frequency of translational errors) there is a linear relationship between growth rate and translation elongation rate. When these mutants are combined with defined...
