Protein abundance is controlled at the transcriptional, translational and posttranslational levels. Here, Öztürk et al. determine proteome changes resulting from individual knockout of 3308 nonessential genes in the yeast S. pombe, infer gene functionality, and show that protein upregulation under stable transcript expression utilizes optimal codons.
