The authors thank Dr Oleg Melnyk (Institut de Biologie de Lille, UMR CNRS 8161, Universités de Lille 1 et 2, Institut Pasteur de Lille, IFR 142) for informing them that N-hydroxysuccinimide carbonates and carbamates have already been used as bioconjugate reagents, contrary to what is claimed in our manuscript (p. 3067).
Synthesis of biotinamidohexanol N-hydroxysuccinimide carbonate (Bx-O-NHS), biotinamidohexylamine N-hydroxysuccinimide carbamate (Bx-NH-NHS), 1-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)amidohexanol N-hydroxysuccinimide carbonate (DNP-O-NHS), 1-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)amidohexylamine N-hydroxysuccinimide carbamate (DNP-NH-NHS) and their application to protein modification have been published by Morpurgo et al. Thus, this latter publication should be taken into account in reference 13 (p. 3067) as follows: M. Morpurgo, E. A. Bayer and M. Wilchek, J. Biochem. Biophys. Methods, 1999, 38, 17.
The authors regret this unwitting omission.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for this error and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
