The authors have discovered an error in the presentation of the mitochondrial DNA haplotyping analysis described in Table 2 and wish to correct the data. The row that displays genotypes at nucleotide position 11,374 is incorrect and should be replaced by a new row that displays genotypes at nucleotide position 11,360. The corrected Table 2 is reprinted below. The authors apologize for any inconvenience this error may have caused other investigators in the field.

Insights from the complete genome sequence of Mycobacterium marinum on the evolution of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Timothy P. Stinear, Torsten Seemann, Paul F. Harrison, Grant A. Jenkin, John K. Davies, Paul D.R. Johnson, Zahra Abdellah, Claire Arrowsmith, Tracey Chillingworth, Carol Churcher, Kay Clarke, Ann Cronin, Paul Davis, Ian Goodhead, Nancy Holroyd, Kay Jagels, Angela Lord, Sharon Moule, Karen Mungall, Halina Norbertczak, Michael A. Quail, Ester Rabbinowitsch, Danielle Walker, Brian White, Sally Whitehead, Pamela L.C. Small, Roland Brosch, Lalita Ramakrishnan, Michael A. Fischbach, Julian Parkhill, and Stewart T. Cole

FadB was inadvertently omitted from the sentence on page 731 describing the enzymes involved in beta-oxidation in M. tuberculosis. The sentence should have read:

“FadD (acyl-CoA synthetase) catalyses the formation of acyl-CoA thioesters that are then processively oxidized by FadE, EchA, FadB, and FadA (Cole et al. 1998).”

In addition, the page range for the Hagedorn and Soldati 2007 reference was incorrect, the corrected reference is as follows:

Hagedorn, M. and Soldati, T. 2007. Flotillin and RacH modulate the intracellular immunity of Dictyostelium to Mycobacterium marinum infection. Cell Microbiol. 9: 2716–2733.

The authors apologize for any confusion these errors may have caused.
