Studying the Translatome with Polysome Profiling
Abstract
Polysome fractionation by sucrose density gradient centrifugation followed by analysis of RNA and protein is a technique that allows to understand the changes in translation of individual mRNAs as well as genome-wide effects on the translatome. Here, we describe the polysome profiling technique and RNA as well as protein isolation procedures from sucrose fractions.

Polysome profiling overcomes the limitation of single-variant-per-cell MPRAs by enabling single cells to translate tens to hundreds of in vitro transcribed (IVT) and transfected mRNA variants.
“Polysome profiling13 overcomes this limitation by enabling single cells to translate tens to hundreds of in vitro transcribed (IVT) and transfected mRNA variants.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
