Transcriptional and chromatin-based partitioning mechanisms uncouple protein scaling from cell size

Biosynthesis scales with cell size such that protein concentrations generally remain constant as cells grow. As an exception, synthesis of the cell-cycle inhibitor Whi5 “sub-scales” with cell size so that its concentration is lower in larger cells to promote cell-cycle entry. Here, we find that tran...
