Erratum to: comparative genomics and evolution of the amylase-binding proteins of oral streptococci

Abstract

ErratumUpon publication of the original article [1] discrepancies were highlighted in the references of this manuscript. On page 11, the references in the following sentence should be amended "Homologs are now found in many oral streptococcal species of humans and animals whose saliva contains amylase activity [32, 33]." Citation 33 should read 34 and was incorrectly amended during the proofing process. In addition, an updated reference list has been included below as two references were accidentally omitted.Updated reference list 2. Kawamura Y, Hou XG, Sultana F, Miura H, Ezaki T.
