Universal Protein Fluctuations in Populations of Microorganisms

Universal Protein Fluctuations in Populations of Microorganisms

The copy number of any protein fluctuates among cells in a population; characterizing and understanding these fluctuations is a fundamental problem in biophysics. We show here that protein distributions measured under a broad range of biological realizations collapse to a single non-Gaussian curve under scaling by the first two moments. …
