In the originally published version of this Article, the GAPDH loading control blot in Fig. 1a was inadvertently replaced with a duplicate of the DNMT2 blot in the same panel during assembly of the figure. This has now been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.

Differential expression of RNA:m5C, RCMTs and hnRNPK in 5-AZA-sensitive and 5-AZA-resistant leukaemia cells and the binding of hnRNPK to unmethylated and cytosine-methylated RNA. a Western blot analysis of expression of RCMTs, hnRNPK and other proteins in the 5-AZA-sensitive OCI-M2 and SC leukaemia cells and the 5-AZA-resistant M2AR and SCAR leukaemia cells. b Dot blot analysis of 5-methylcytosine (m5C) in RNA and DNA from OCI-M2 and M2AR cells. c Dot blot analysis of 5-methylcytosine (m5C) in RNA and DNA from SC and SCAR cells. d, e Visualization and measurement of the binding of purified recombinant hnRNPK to the unmethylated and cytosine-methylated fluorescein (FAM)-labelled RNA oligos by an antibody-coupled bead assay
