Corrigendum: Chaperones, Membrane Trafficking and Signal Transduction Proteins Regulate Zaire Ebola Virus trVLPs and Interact With trVLP Elements

Figure 3C on page 7 of this paper erroneously presented two identical western-blot panels (GRP78 and HSPA8).

The corrected Figure 3C presents the GRP78 and HSPA8 western-blot panels as originally intended.

Figure 3.

Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and immunoblot analysis of interaction between target proteins and EBOV-trVLP glycoprotein (GP). (A) Co-IP and immunoblot analysis of EBOV trVLP GP. Extracts from HEK 293T cells infected with trVLPs were incubated with antibodies recognizing candidate host proteins plus Protein G beads; pulled-down proteins were detected by western blotting using anti-GP antibody. HSPA1A, MAPK11, NTRK1, GRP78, FLT4, HSPA8, MEK2, HSP90AB1, and YWHAZ interact with GP, whereas ARFGAP1, ANXA5, and isotype controls do not. Extracts incubated with Protein G beads without antibody, and antibodies mixed with Protein G beads and normal cell extracts without trVLPs served as controls. (B) Immunoblot analysis of the 11 target proteins before IP and (C) after IP. Samples were prepared as described above.
