Erratum:

The original version of this article [1] unfortunately contained a mistake. The information in Table 1 was misrepresented.

Table 1.

Summary of iPSCs in this study

Clone name Diagnosis GFAP genotype Sex Age at onset Age at sampling
HC1 healthy wild female - 36
HC2 healthy wild female - 67
HC3 healthy wild male - 74
Alex1 Alexander disease type I R239C (c.729C>T) male 2 6
Alex2 Alexander disease type I E69K (c.205G>A) female 3 10
Alex3 Alexander disease type II L264P (c.791_792TG>CT) female 33 45

Abbreviations: GFAP Glial fibrillary acidic protein, HC Healthy control

Alex1 was generated from patient fibroblasts (GM16825) from Coriell Institute (Camden, NJ)

In Table 1 in the information related to Alex2 clone, E63K should read E69K and in the information related to Alex3 clone, R276L (c.827G>T) should read L264P (c.791_792TG>CT). Additionally, the second column header has been modified from “clinical character” to “Diagnosis”.

An updated version of Table 1 has been provided below.
