In the original published version of the article, Valerie Vancollie was mistakenly omitted from the list of members of the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium. In addition, recognition of funding from Wellcome Trust grant WT098051 was mistakenly omitted from the Acknowledgements. The errors have been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the paper.
