Empirical mean-noise fitness landscapes reveal the fitness impact of gene expression noise
Quantifying the effects of noise in gene expression is difficult since noise and mean expression are coupled. Here the authors determine fitness landscapes in mean-noise expression space to uncouple these two parameters and show that changes in noise and mean expression are similarly detrimental to...
