Since the publication of the above article the authors have noted an error in Figure 5b.

Structures of N-glycans of sEGFR produced in CHO-K1 cells. (a) Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization linear time-of-flight mass spectrum of the glycosylated peptides including Asn328 (upper panel) and Asn337 (lower panel) of sEGFR produced in CHO-K1 cells. The intensity of the signals allows a rough estimation of the relative abundances of the molecules. (b) The summary of N-glycans of EGFR produced in CHO-K1 cells. The illustration indicates the structure of N-glycans of sEGFR. Blue square, N-acetylglucosamine; green circle, mannose; yellow circle, galactose; purple diamond, sialic acid; red triangle, fucose.

In the figure, the ‘structure’ of N389 is shown as ‘(iv)’ and that of N420 as ‘(i)’, but in actuality the reverse is true. Namely, the ‘structure’ of N389 is ‘(i)’ and that of N420 is ‘(iv)’. As such, accurately depicted, the table should appear as shown in Figure 5.

Although these errors do not affect the conclusion of the paper the authors apologise for any inconvenience caused.
