    Revealing global stoichiometry conservation architecture in cells from Raman spectral patterns

    Ken-ichiro F Kamei, Koseki J Kobayashi-Kirschvink ... Yuichi Wakamoto
    Conservation levels of gene expression abundance ratios are globally coordinated in cells, and cellular state changes under such biologically relevant stoichiometric constraints are readable as low-dimensional changes in Raman spectra.
