Translational activity of 80S monosomes varies dramatically across different tissues

Albert Blandy, Tayah S. Hopes, Elton J. R. Vasconcelos…·Julie L. Aspden

The paper examines translational activity of 80S monosomes in different Drosophila tissues, finding that head and embryo monosomes are active while testis and ovary monosomes are inactive.
