Correction: Screening and purification of natural products from actinomycetes that affect the cell shape of fission yeast [J. Cell Sci., 130, (2017), (3173-3185)] doi:10.1242/jcs.194571

Abstract

In the above paper, we described the purification of a polyene from strain IS1 and identified it as a novel compound based on mass spectrometry data ( published in Fig. 8B).We have been investigating this molecule in more detail and now believe, based on 1H NMR data, that it is identical to the known molecule fungichromin (also known as cogomycin, pentamycin and lagosin). The original identification of the molecule as novel was based on our interpretation of the ion at m/z=693.379 as a protonated ion [M+H]+, whereas we now believe that this represents a sodiated ion [M+Na]+.
