Description
The synthetic cost of cycling genes is higher than other genes, and the cyclic expression pattern of these genes is a strategy for reducing the overall energy usage of cells Overall design: Samples for both conditions were taken over two metabolic cycles. For the fast cycling condition one sample was taken every 13 minutes for ~4.25 hours. For the slow cycling condition, samples were taken every 36 minutes for ~14.5 hours. Cycling genes were identified using JTK_Cycle (Hughes et al. (2010) Journal of Biological Rhythms).
