In the paper by Antonova et al., (2012) we reported lower expression of chiA1-lux and pilA-lux transcriptional fusions in a Vibrio cholerae C6706 ΔhapR mutant relative to WT C6706 (Fig 3B and C, second black bars). Recent independent analyses indicate expression of chiA-1 and pilA is unchanged in C6706 ΔhapR relative to WT C6706 (Watve, Thomas & Hammer, in review), consistent with results observed with strain A1552 (Lo Scrudato, M. and Blokesch, M. (2013) A transcriptional regulator linking quorum sensing and chitin induction to render Vibrio cholerae naturally transformable. Nucleic Acids Res 41: 3644–3658). Subsequent resequencing of the two strains depicted (Fig 3B and Fig 3C, second black bars) indicated they were not ΔhapR strains. This does not affect any other results in the paper or conclusions regarding the role of CytR in natural competence. We apologize for the error.
