In the paper entitled “Two Mutations in Surfactant Protein C Gene Associated with Neonatal Respiratory Distress” [1], we wrote the following in Section “Tracheal aspirates and blood for molecular typing for surfactant protein were analyzed: DNA sequencing showed two mutations in the SFTPC gene (C43-7G>A and 12T>A). Parents refused to be examined.” It has to be corrected as follows.
“Tracheal aspirates and blood for molecular typing for surfactant protein were analyzed: DNA sequencing showed two mutations in the SFTPC gene (C43-7G>A and 12T>A). The analysis was performed by Clinical and Molecular Biology and Cytogenetics Laboratory, S. Raffaele Hospital (Milan, Italy), directed by Professor Maurizio Ferrari.”
