Half-life variability among members of protein complexes is smaller than expected by chance. Distributions of standard deviations (SD) of half-lives from proteins in complexes as annotated in the CORUM database compared to SD of the half-lives of the same proteins shuffled across the different complexes, while preserving the number of proteins in each complex group. Differences in the log10 half-lives of true protein complex members vs. the random draws of proteins in a given cell type were assessed by Wilcoxon-rank test (significance levels were encoded as *** p < 0.001, ** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05). Center line in box plots is the median, the bounds of the boxes are the 75 and 25% percentiles i.e., the interquartile range (IQR) and the whiskers correspond to the highest or lowest respective value or if the lowest or highest value is an outlier (greater than 1.5 * IQR from the bounds of the boxes) it is exactly 1.5 * IQR
