Setdb1 is required for germline development and silencing of H3K9me3-marked endogenous retroviruses in primordial germ cells

Genes & Development 28: 2041–2055 (2014)

In the above-mentioned article, there are two places where incorrect figures are cited.

On page 2045, in the last paragraph of, the sentence “No change in expression of the remaining known H3K9 or H3K27 histone methyltransferases was observed in the Setdb1 knockout (Supplemental Fig. 7E), indicating that deposition of H3K27me3 at coenriched regions, likely by EZH1 and/or EZH2, is at least partially dependent on SETDB1 or H3K9me3” should instead refer to Supplemental Figure 7F.

On page 2053, in the “Breeding and Mating” section of the Materials and Methods, the sentence “Briefly, Setdb1^flox/flox females were mated with a Setdb1^flox/+ Tnap^cre/+ male to generate the genotypes described in Supplemental Figure 5A” should instead refer to Supplemental Figure 2A.

The authors apologize for any misunderstanding these errors may have caused.
