Ribosome distribution as a function of time with a time-varying initiation rate.
Numerical simulation showing (dots) and (open circles) starting from an empty mRNA chain at times (A) , (B) , (C) and (D) . Parameters are , , , , , and for . Note the change in the vertical scale in each panel. Distance along the chain is measured in ribosome lengths.
