Yeast mRNA Degradation Rate

Taken from Wang et. Al 2001

Data was obtained from the Paper (Wang et. Al 2001 [http://www.pnas.org/content/99/9/5860.long]) and processed by [http://arohatgi.info/WebPlotDigitizer/app/] to obtain raw data. Using a least-squared error approximation the distribution of the half life time in was approximated as noncentral t-distribution with parameters μ= 1.769 and ν = 20.59;.
