Quantifying the benefit of a proteome reserve in fluctuating environments

Fast-growing bacteria produce many proteins in excess of what seems optimal for exponential growth. Here, the authors present a mathematical model and experimental evidence supporting that this overexpression serves as a strategic reserve to quickly meet demand upon sudden improvement in growth cond...
