Correction: BMPER Promotes Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in the Developing Cardiac Cushions
Year: 2018
Type: erratum
Abstract: After publication of the article, concerns were raised regarding Fig 3. Specifically, panel B in "Atrioventricular cushions" is duplicated in panel I in "Outflow tract cushions".The authors have acknowledged accidental errors in the preparation of this figure.When originally submitting this manuscript, the non-significant outflow tract data were included as supplemental figures.When constructing the original Fig 3 and supplemental Figure 3, LD had identified which samples were most representative for all times and genotypes except for the E9.5 BMPER-/-OFT image, for which no embryo was selected.When identifying which sample would best represent the E9.5 BMPER-/-OFT data, LD accidentally used the notes for the E9.5 BMPER-/-AVC data and duplicated the AVC data.As part of a supplemental image, the duplicated figure went unnoticed until through the review and revision process, even as the supplemental figures were incorporated into the main figures.The authors are glad for this opportunity to correct panel 3I in Fig 3. Please see the new Fig 3 here.
