Erratum

In the September 2006 issue of the Journal, in the article entitled “Peters Plus Syndrome Is Caused by Mutations in B3GALTL, a Putative Glycosyltransferase” by Lesnik Oberstein et al. (79:562–566), because of the use of an incorrect reference sequence, the annotation of the mutations in the article is incorrect. On the basis of a coding DNA reference sequence (GenBank accession number NM_194318.2), the exon 5 splice-site mutation should be described as c.347+5G→A (not c.437+5G→A), and the exon 8 splice-site mutation as c.660+1G→A (not c.1020+1G→A). All variations identified in the B3GALTL gene have been collected in a new locus-specific sequence-variation database. The database has been registered at the Human Genome Variation Society and can be found at http://chromium.liacs.nl/lovd/search.php?select_db=B3GALTL. The authors regret the errors.
