Identification of novel translated small ORFs in Escherichia coli using complementary ribosome profiling approaches
A. M. Stringer, C. Smith, K. Mangano, J. T. Wade
The paper identifies 365 novel small ORFs in E. coli using ribosome profiling with antibiotics to stall ribosomes at start and stop codons, showing many encode unstable proteins not under purifying selection.
