In the article entitled, “Simultaneous Amplification, Detection, and Analysis of Common Mutations in the Galactose-1-Phosphate Uridyl Transferase Gene” (Volume 9, pages 618–623), which appeared in the November 2007 issue of The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics, Dr. Genevieve Pont-Kingdon was inadvertently omitted from the list of authors when her contributions should have been recognized as an author. Her contribution was essential in the construction of the artificial templates shown in Figure 1. The list of contributing authors should have been listed as follows: Mohamed Jama, Lesa Nelson, Genevieve Pont-Kingdon, Rong Mao, and Elaine Lyon. All authors have agreed to list Dr. Pont-Kingdon as a full author, in the order listed.
In the article entitled, “Systemic Mastocytosis Associated with Chronic Idiopathic Myelofibrosis: A Distinct Subtype of Systemic Mastocytosis-Associated Clonal Hematological Nonmast Cell Lineage Disorder Carrying the Activating Point Mutations KITD816V and JAK2V617F” (Volume 10, pages 58–66), which appeared in the January 2008 issue, the title contained errors. The correct title is “Systemic Mastocytosis Associated with Chronic Idiopathic Myelofibrosis: A Distinct Subtype of Systemic Mastocytosis Associated with a Clonal Hematological Non-Mast Cell Lineage Disorder Carrying the Activating Point Mutations KITD816V and JAK2V617F.”
