Correction: Release of extraction-resistant mRNA in stationary phase Saccharomyces cerevisiae produces a massive increase in transcript abundance in response to stress

Short abstract

A correction to Release of extraction-resistant mRNA in stationary phase Saccharomyces cerevisiae produces a massive increase in transcript abundance in response to stress by AD Aragon, GA Quiñones, EV Thomas, S Roy and M Werner-Washburne. Genome Biology 2006, 7:R9

We wish to report a correction to our study [1]. This does not alter the interpretation of the data. The strain S288c that was used in the study was reported incorrectly as having the genotype: MATα his3 leu2-3,112 lys2 trp1 ura3-52. In fact the S288c strain we used, stored in our laboratory as MW481, is MATα gal2mal2.
