The originally published version of this article contained an important wording error. In the Results section “Sup35 PrD Mutants Illuminate Nucleation Mechanisms In Vivo,” the article previously said: “We observed that, in [PIN+] cells, these mutants greatly increased δ relative to WT.” The words “greatly increased” should have been “decreased.” The numbers referred to are correct as reported, showing that the corresponding δ values are in fact decreased. Likewise, the interpretation of these data throughout the remainder of the text are correct as written. The error resulted from earlier versions of the manuscript in which a different parameter, equivalent to the inverse of δ, was used to describe the data. This has since been corrected in the article. The authors apologize for the error and any confusion.
