Translational Bursting is the Main Source of Stochasticity in Prokaryotes
The amount of protein translated per strand of mRNA produced is a transcripts translational effciency or "burst parameter". Proteins are translated from mRNA in a pulsatile manner often described as "short bursting". Genes that are regulated by operons with low translational efficiency have a lower amount of noise than those exhibiting high translational efficiency. This is becuase a lower amount of mRNA in the cell means that the concentration of mRNA's be more susceptible to stochastic events such mRNA degredation.
Factors that Influence Translational Bursting
Degredation, get there when you come to it.
