quite significantp = 10 −57
The two partial correlations were both quite significant ( f versus txn rate/tlns per mRNA | protein production rate, complex membership: Spearman partial r = 0.227, n = 4,746, p = 10 −57 ; complex membership versus txn rate/tlns per mRNA | protein production rate, f: Spearman partial r = 0.147, n = 4,746, p = 10 −24 ), suggesting that fitness effect and protein complex membership are independently associated with the expression strategy that minimizes stochastic fluctuation.
