In the legend to Fig. 6, the fifth sentence should have read as follows: β€œIn the B6 background, 77% of mice developed a brain lesion (n=22 ).”

Macular corneal dystrophy type I and type II are caused by distinct mutations in a new sulphotransferase gene

The designation of one of the mutations reported, C840A (resulting in R50), was not correct. The correct designation is C840T (resulting in R50C). The authors thank Eddy Ball (Human Mutation Database, Cardiff) for alerting them to this error.

Dominant isolated renal magnesium loss is caused by misrouting of the Na + ,K + -ATPase Ξ³-subunit

The mutation found in FXYD2 is referred to in the text as G123A; this mutation should have been designated G121A. The mutation is correctly shown in Fig. 1. It was recently reported that the alternative exon 1 encodes an alternative splice-variant (K.J. Sweadner and E. Rael, Genomics 68, 41–56; 2000).

The references at the bottom of the second column, first page (concerning functional effects of the Ξ³-subunit on Na and K affinity), should have been 5,7,8 rather than 4,7,8. In paragraph 4, second page, line 3, the reference should have been 8, rather than 4.
