An Estimation of Minimal Genome Size for a Living Cell
Studies of existing cells to determine the minimum number of genes for a living cell have suggested that 206 genes are sufficient. If the ratio of protein-coding genes to non-protein-coding genes is the same in this minimal organism as the genes of Mycoplasma genitalium , how many proteins are represented in these 206 genes?
How many base pairs would be required to form the genome of this minimal organism if the genes are the same size as M. genitalium genes?
