In Table 1, an error was made in the last two rows. The two sets of genomic coordinates listed for the gene VPS29 were erroneously duplicated. The last genomic coordinates listed for the gene VCP (chr12 110930800 110931036) should be listed as the first set of coordinates for the gene VPS29. The complete, correct Table 1 is shown below. The typesetters apologize for this error.Table 1Genes proposed for calibrationGene nameRefSeq accession numberGene descriptionGenomic coordinates (hg19) of exons passing the filtersC1orf43NM_015449chromosome 1 open reading frame 43chr1chr1chr1chr1chr1154192817154186932154186368154184933154184795154192883154187050154186422154185100154184854CHMP2ANM_014453charged multivesicular body protein 2Achr19chr19chr19590654115906362559063421590655795906380559063552EMC7NM_020154ER membrane protein complex subunit 7chr15chr15chr15343825173438025334376537343826563438033434376687GPINM_000175glucose-6-phosphate isomerasechr19chr19chr19chr19chr19chr19chr19chr19chr19chr19chr19chr19348576873485948734868639348698383487237034884152348848183488720534887485348901113489046034890623348577563485960734868786348699103487242434884213348849713488733534887562348902403489053634890690PSMB2NM_002794proteasome subunit, beta type, 2chr1chr1chr1361019103609687436070833361020333609694536070883PSMB4NM_002796proteasome subunit, beta type, 4chr1chr1chr1chr1151372456151372917151373239151373714151372663151373064151373321151373831RAB7ANM_004637member RAS oncogene familychr3chr3chr3128525214128526385128532169128525433128526514128532262REEP5NM_005669receptor accessory protein 5chr5chr5chr5112256859112238076112222711112256953112238215112222880SNRPD3NM_004175small nuclear ribonucleoprotein D3chr22chr2224953642249639512495376824964144VCPNM_007126valosin-containing proteinchr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr9chr93506788735066671350641503506221335061999350615733506101135060797350603093505948935059060350573723505711635068060350668143506428235062347350621353506168635061176350609203506052235059798350592163505752735057219VPS29NM_016226vacuolar protein sorting 29 homologchr12chr12110930800110929812110931036110929927Genes chosen have most of their exons showing geometrical mean expression exceeding RPKM=50, standard deviation of log2(RPKM) lower than 0.5, and no single tissue showing expression level different from the geometrical mean by 2-fold or more.

Human housekeeping genes, revisitedEisenberg et al.Trends in GeneticsJune 28, 2013In BriefHousekeeping genes are genes that are required for the maintenance of basal cellular functions that are essential for the existence of a cell, regardless of its specific role in the tissue or organism. Thus, they are expected to be expressed in all cells of an organism under normal conditions, irrespective of tissue type, developmental stage, cell cycle state, or external signal. From a fundamental point of view, full characterization of the minimal set of genes required to sustain life is of special interest [1,2]. Full-Text PDF
