Before revision:   . Our data show that the stoichiometry among core RPs in wild-type yeast cells and ESC depends both on the growth conditions and on the number of ribosomes bound per mRNA. Furthermore, we find that the fitness of cells with a deleted RP-gene is inversely proportional to the enrichment of the corresponding RP in ribosomes bound to multiple mRNAs . Together, our findings support the existence of ribosomes with distinct protein composition and physiological function.
