Main Text

(Stem Cell Reports 4, 61–73; January 13, 2015)

We regret that there were inadvertent errors in the Supplemental Information (Table S5 and S6) in our recent article. Several primer sequences were misplaced during copying from the source, two gene symbols (used as primer names) were misspelled, and two GenBank Accession numbers were also wrong. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Fortunately, the errors listed above did not affect the PCR reactions (as the correct primers were used), the results or conclusions drawn from the experiments.

The combined list of corrections appears below, and the Supplemental Information files have been updated online.
