This article is a correction to:
Chaperones, Membrane Trafficking and Signal Transduction Proteins Regulate Zaire Ebola Virus trVLPs and Interact With trVLP Elements
A Corrigendum on
Chaperones, Membrane Trafficking and Signal Transduction Proteins Regulate Zaire Ebola Virus trVLPs and Interact With trVLP Elements
by Yu, D.-S., Weng, T.-H., Hu, C.-Y., Wu, Z.-G., Li, Y.-H., Cheng, L.-F, et al. (2018). Front. Microbiol. 9:2724. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2018.02724
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.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
