Translation Efficiency

Concept

Translation Efficiency (TE) = Ribo-seq reads / RNA-seq reads

• TE > 1: Efficiently translated (more ribosomes per mRNA)
• TE < 1: Poorly translated
• Changes in TE indicate translational regulation

Calculate TE with Plastid

from plastid import BAMGenomeArray, GTF2_TranscriptAssembler
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
