Erratum to: Transgenic Res DOI 10.1007/s11248-010-9441-2

Due to an update of the Car6 gene in GenBank®, the number of exons in Fig. 1A of the above mentioned publication have been changed from 7 to 8. Furthermore, the text describing the construction of Car6 targeting vector should be corrected accordingly. The correct representation of Fig. 1 and the concerning paragraph are published on the following page and should be treated as definitive by the reader.
Fig. 1

Targeted disruption of the Car6 gene in ES cells. A A schematic representation of the disruption of the Car6 locus by homologous recombination. Solid boxes represent exons. F1, R1, and R2 are primers used for genotyping. B Identification of targeted (±) ES cell clones using multiplex PCR. M molecular marker. C indicates the negative control for PCR (H2O). C Characterization of targeted (±) ES cell clones by Southern blot

Within the section ‘Construction of Car6 targeting vector’ of the ‘Materials and methods’, the second sentence in the first paragraph should read:

“The vector (pPN2ThGHterm-Car6 targeting vector) was designed such that exons 3 and 4 of the mouse Car6 gene were replaced by the bacterial neomycin resistance gene (Neo).”

The first sentence in the second paragraph must read: “To construct the pPN2ThGHterm-Car6 targeting vector, a short 5′-homologous arm (2,058 bp) containing exon 2 was amplified using the entire mouse Car6 gene clone (described above) as a template.”

The fourth sentence in the second paragraph should read: “Subsequently, a long 3′-homologous arm (4,984 bp) containing exons 5 and 6 was amplified using the entire mouse Car6 gene clone as a template.”

The correct Fig. 1 and its caption are shown on the following page.
