Corrigendum to ‘‘The plant-specific VIMAG domain of Glutamine Dumper1 is necessary for the function of the protein in arabidopsis’’ [FEBS Lett. 580 (2006) 6961–6966]q Re´jane Pratelli, Guillaume Pilot* Institute for Cellular and Molecular Botany (IZMB), Kirschallee 1, 53115 Bonn, Germany Available online 21 February 2007
Database searches of the recently available Physcomitrella patens genome sequencing data (http://moss.nibb.ac.jp/) were performed after the publication of the paper and identified three contigs containing open reading frames (ORF) presenting sequence similarities with GDU1: contig14302, contig14766 and contig12313. Only the ORF of the two later contigs seem to be complete. The deduced protein sequences were used for database mining and two supplemental ORFs from Arabidopsis and Brassica were identified presenting weak similarities with GDU1. They had been discarded from the previous sequence analyses for the selfsame reason. The sequences from Physcomitrella (Physco1 and Physco2), Arabidopsis (At5g38770, GDU7) and Brassica (Brassica3) were aligned to other GDU-like protein sequences described in the paper and a new phylogenic tree was constructed (Fig. 1). The sequences of these proteins and the alignment are available upon request. The GDU proteins are thus found in both higher and lower plants and not ‘‘only in higher plants’’ as written in the paper.

Fig. 1. Phylogenic relationships of the GDU proteins from plants. The tree was constructed by PAUP4b4a, using the Neighbor Joining algorithm from the aligned protein sequences of the joined transmembrane and VIMAG domains, as described previously. The newly added genes are grouped in the Dicot2 + Physcomitrella clade.
