A transport and retention mechanism for the sustained distal localization of Spn-F-IKKε during Drosophila bristle elongation.
There was an error published in Development 142, 2338-2351. Otani et al. reported the genetic interactions between ikkε and spn-F, using the allele ikkε66. This allele was referred to in the Materials and Methods on p. 2349, Fig. 3 on p. 2343 and Table S1. However, they subsequently found that the allele used in the experiments was ikkε1 (also known as ikkε36). This was as a result of misannotation in their laboratory stock list. Both alleles are strong loss-of-function alleles with a missense mutation in the kinase domain and show similar phenotypes (Oshima et al., 2006; Shapiro and Anderson, 2006). Therefore, this error does not affect the conclusions of the paper. The authors apologise to readers for this mistake.
