In the version of the article initially published, in the “Geranylation affects codon bias and frameshifting” section, the phrase “… a separate tRNAGlnCUG, only tRNAGluUUC and tRNALysUUU decode the codons GAA and GAG and the codons CAA and CAG, respectively” should have read “… a separate tRNAGlnCUG, only tRNAGluUUC and tRNALysUUU decode the codons GAA and GAG and the codons AAA and AAG, respectively”. This notice serves to amend this error.
