In the article “Gene Mutations in the Succinate Dehydrogenase Subunit SDHB Cause Susceptibility to Familial Pheochromocytoma and to Familial Paraganglioma,” by Astuti et al. (69:49–54), the amino acid numbering of the SDHB mutations is incorrect. All the nucleotide numbering in the article is correct; however, the total amino acid length for the SDHB protein is 280 (not 281, as incorrectly presented in the article), and therefore the amino acid numbering is incorrect: R91X should be R90X, P198R should be P197R, L88S should be L87S, and P198R should be P197R. The authors apologize for these errors.
