“…Cellular response to perturbation often leads to a change in cell state, accompanied by dynamic alterations in protein synthesis and degradation that ultimately result in changes in protein expression levels ( Golan-Lavi et al., 2017 ). Measuring changes in mRNA abundance is commonly used to estimate changes in protein expression; however, relative mRNA abundance has been shown to be an incomplete predictor of protein synthesis and abundance ( Schwanhäusser et al., 2011 , Jovanovic et al., 2015 ) because translation is a highly regulated process that can be modulated by signaling pathways ( Rowlands et al., 1988 , Feng et al., 1992 , Chen and London, 1995 , Berlanga et al., 1999 , Gingras et al., 2001 , Novoa et al., 2003 ), RNA structural elements ( Filbin and Kieft, 2009 ), and tRNA isoacceptor availability ( Chan et al., 2010 , Chan et al., 2012 , Chionh et al., 2016 ).…”
