There were mistakes in Table 1 as published. The G + C content and several genome annotation statistics, including the numbers of total genes and protein-coding genes, were incorrectly reported. The corrected Table 1 appears below.

Table 1.

Genome statistics of the Pseudoalteromonas sp. WY3.

Attribute Value % of total
Genome size (bp) 3,926,696 100
DNA coding region (bp) 3,315,162 84.43
DNA G + C (bp) 1,570,447 39.99
DNA scaffolds 3 —
Total genes 4,234 100
Protein-coding genes 4,107 97.00
RNA genes 127 3.00
Genes assigned to COGs 3,059 74.48
Genes assigned Pfam domains 14 0.34
Genes with signal peptides 368 8.96
Genes with transmembrane helices 943 22.96

The G + C content, total number of genes, and number of coding sequences were incorrectly reported. A correction has been made to section 3.2 Genomic characteristics, Paragraph 1:

“The genome assembly of strain WY3 included 3 scaffolds, with a total length of 3,926,696 base pairs and a G + C content of 39.99% (Table 1). A total of 4,234 genes were identified, including 4,107 coding sequences (Figure 2A).”

The number of genes encoding cold shock proteins (CspA) was incorrectly reported. A correction has been made to the section 3.6 Environmental adaptability, Paragraph 2:

“It harbors 10 genes encoding cold shock proteins (CspA), which are crucial for stabilizing RNA and proteins during sudden temperature drops.”
