Translational buffering tunes gene expression in mice and humans
We hypothesize two models of translational buffering, namely the "differential accessibility model" and the "translation initiation rate model", suggesting that different transcripts align with one or the other. Our study explores the translational buffering potential of genes across diverse conditions, elucidates their distinctive features, and provides insights into the mechanisms driving this effect.
