Abstract
Expression of Concern: The Role of the RACK1 Ortholog Cpc2p in Modulating Pheromone-Induced Cell Cycle Arrest in Fission Yeast.
Highlights
After this article [1] was published, concerns were raised about the following calcofluor white staining results reported in Figs 1, 2 and 5:
In the JY1578(cyr1, sxa2, oe-cpc2+) panels shown in Fig 2C, when levels are adjusted it appears that contrast levels differ between the cells and the background in the 0 hour, 8 hour and 16 hour panels
There is a rectangle in the 0h panel and an area where background appears discontinuous with surrounding area in the 8h panel
Summary
After this article [1] was published, concerns were raised about the following calcofluor white staining results reported in Figs 1, 2 and 5:. In the 8h, 16h, and 32h panels for JY546(cyr1-, sxa2-) in Fig 2A, and the 8h panel for JY1628 (cyr1-, sxa2-, cpc2-) in Fig 2B, there appear to be discontinuities in the background image when levels are adjusted.
