This Article contains errors in the Results section under the subheading ‘Role of acyl-ACP/WaaP interaction’.

“A similar level of WaaP-FLAG protein was produced regardless of the presence or absence of only detected in the supernatant after ultracentrifugation when acyl-ACP was present, as shown by anti-FLAG western blot (Fig. 4) and SYPRO Orange stained protein gel (Supplementary Fig. 4)”.

should read:

“A similar level of WaaP-FLAG protein was produced regardless of the presence or absence of acyl-ACP or of non-acylated ACP proteins or fatty acid in the reaction mixture (Fig. 4). However, WaaP was only detected in the supernatant after ultracentrifugation when acyl-ACP was present, as shown by anti-FLAG western blot (Fig. 4) and SYPRO Orange stained protein gel (Supplementary Fig. 4)”.
