In this study, we examined yeast proteins by two-dimensional (2D)
gel electrophoresis and gathered quantitative information from about
1,400 spots. We found that there is an enormous range of protein
abundance and, for identified spots, a good correlation between protein
abundance, mRNA abundance, and codon bias. For each molecule of
well-translated mRNA, there were about 4,000 molecules of protein. The
relative abundance of proteins was measured in glucose and ethanol
media. Protein turnover was examined and found to be insignificant for
abundant proteins. Some phosphoproteins were identified. The behavior
of proteins in differential centrifugation experiments was examined.
Such experiments with 2D gels can give a global view of the yeast proteome.
