Proteins are listed in order from highest to lowest cellular concentration.

a

Abundance (mean ± SD) is expressed as ng of ABP per µg of total cellular protein determined by quantitative Western blotting as in Fig. S1.

b

n, number of times cellular abundance was determined by quantitative Western blotting.

c

Cellular concentrations of proteins were calculated as in Fig. 1 A and Materials and methods.

d

Number of molecules per cell calculated from the cellular concentration of each protein and the average cytosolic volume of a yeast cell, calculated in Fig. S1.

e

Percentage of ABP in the cytosol (mean ± SD) was calculated by live imaging as shown in Fig. 2.

f

Cytosolic concentrations of ABPs; data from Fig. 3 C.

g

Concentration of these ABPs were determined based on fluorescence of GFP fusions rather than Western blot (details in Materials and methods).

h

Concentration based on previous study (Drees et al., 1995) showing that Tpm2 is approximately sixfold less abundant than Tpm1 in cells.
