Author Correction: Design, execution, and analysis of CRISPR-Cas9-based deletions and genetic interaction networks in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans

Nat Protoc. 2019 Aug;14(8):2595. doi: 10.1038/s41596-019-0157-3.

Abstract

The version of this paper originally published contained reference errors. The sentence "To dissect complex genetic interactions in C. albicans, a CRISPR-Cas9-based Gene Drive Array (GDA) was developed" incorrectly cited ref. 13, and should have cited ref. 14. In addition, the reference included as ref. 13 in the original paper was incorrect, and should have been the following: Shapiro, R. S., Chavez, A. & Collins, J. J. CRISPR-based genomic tools for the manipulation of genetically intractable microorganisms. Nat. Rev. Microbiol. 16, 333-339 (2018). This reference should have been cited after the sentence "Recent innovations in CRISPR-Cas9-based genome editing have facilitated such genetic interaction analyses." The original reference 13 (Gerami-Nejad, M., Zacchi, L. F., McClellan, M., Matter, K. & Berman, J. Shuttle vectors for facile gap repair cloning and integration into a neutral locus in Candida albicans. Microbiology 159, 565-579 (2013)) should have been cited later in the paper, and is now in the reference list as ref. 27. As a result, original references 27-33 have been renumbered in the reference list and in the text. These changes have been made in the PDF and HTML versions of the protocol.
