Full-transcriptome methods have brought versatile power to protein biosynthesis research, but remain difficult to apply for the quantification of absolute protein synthesis rates. Here we propose and, using modified translation complex profiling, confirm co-localisation of ribosomes on messenger(m)RNA resulting from their diffusional dynamics. We demonstrate that these stochastically co-localised ribosomes are linked with the translation initiation rate and provide a robust variable to model and quantify specific protein output from mRNA.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
