Human protein and mRNA concentrations. Left: protein and mRNA concentrations correlate significantly at a log–log scale (N=512, R2=0.29, Rs=0.46 with P-value<2.2e−16). Right: genes with extremely high (red) or low (green) protein-per-mRNA ratios are likely regulated at the level of translation or protein stability.
