There was an inadvertent error in Figure 4, panel (F), pertaining to the effect of the iNT-Cx50a peptide on the spermine block of rat Cx40 gap junctions. The data that originally appeared in this figure was the same data plotted in Figure 4, panel (B) for the iNT-Cx40b peptide. The data in Figure 4B is correct and the correct data for the iNT-Cx50a (n = 4) is now illustrated in this revised version of Figure 4 for the original manuscript. The corresponding author regrets the error that occurred while configuring the figures for this manuscript and accepts sole responsibility for this mistake. The iNT-Cx50a peptide was 95% effective in preventing the inhibition of Cx40 gap junctions by 500 microM spermine and inclusion of the correct data for the iNT-Cx50a peptide does not alter the results or conclusion of the original manuscript, just the accuracy of reporting the experimental data. The legend for Figure 4 is not affected in any way and is reproduced here in its entirety.
