Abstract
Correction to: The EMBO Journal (2005) 24, 2613–2623. doi:10.1038/sj.emboj.7600726
The authors have discovered an error in the above article.
In our original paper, we inadvertently left out references for the ‘Essential gene' column of Table I. Please find below the corrected version. We have now split this column into ‘Lethal mutant' and ‘Lethal by RNAi' columns and added citations. We apologize to authors who were not cited in the original paper and for any inconvenience caused.
Table 1.

| Shown are the predicted gene name, locus, closest human homologue with BlastP E-value in parentheses, a brief description of the protein, whether the gene was identified in the lin-15A screen (designated ‘B'), the lin-15B screen (designated ‘A') or not screened (designated ‘ND' for clones not in the library or ‘ND*' for RNAi clones found to be incorrect upon sequencing), if a mutant is lethal (designated ND if no mutant is published), if the gene shows a lethal RNAi phenotype (defined as embryonic lethal, larval lethal, or sterile) in our experiments except where referenced, and if it is a previously known synMuv gene. | |||||||
