Erratum to: Rewriting the blueprint of life by synthetic genomics and genome engineering

The Original Article was published on 16 June 2015

Erratum

In the version of this article that was originally published [1] there were errors in Figure three panel b (Figure 1b here) regarding the sizes of building blocks (BBs) and minichunks (wrongly denoted as 750 kb and 3000 kb, respectively). These mistakes, which were a result of clerical error that occurred during copy editing, have now been corrected online. The size of building block (BB) and minichunk is now correctly denoted as 0.75 kb and 3 kb, respectively.

synIII design and synthesis. (a) synIII design. (b) synIII synthesis. This includes a revised version of Fig. 3(b) in the originally published article [1]. The size of the building block (BB) and minichunk is now correctly denoted as 0.75 kb and 3 kb, respectively

The journal apologizes for these errors.
