In the article by Ishikawa et al, “Novel Mutation in the α-Myosin Heavy Chain Gene Is Associated With Sick Sinus Syndrome,” which published online on February 25, 2015, and appeared in the April 2015 issue of the journal (Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology. 2015;8:400–408. DOI: 10.1161/CIRCEP.114.002534), a correction is needed.

In Figure 3, the authors indicated that they spliced an irrelevant lane between the 1st and 2nd lanes of the blot without changing the intensity, but failed to explain it in the article. As shown in the corrected Figure 3, panel B, they would like to indicate the splicing positions by vertical lines, and have corrected the figure legend by adding the following sentence at the end of the description for Figure 3B; “An irrelevant lane between the 1st and 2nd lanes of the blot was spliced.”

The authors apologize for this error.

Ishikawa 等人于 2015 年 2 月 25 日在线发表的文章“α-肌球蛋白重链基因中的新突变与病态窦房结综合征相关”，发表在 2015 年 4 月号期刊上（ 《循环：心律失常》）和电生理学2015；8:400–408)，需要更正。

在图3中，作者指出，他们在印迹的第1条泳道和第2条泳道之间拼接了一条不相关的泳道，但没有改变强度，但未能在文章中对此进行解释。如图3B图所示，他们希望用垂直线来指示拼接位置，并通过在图3B的描述末尾添加以下句子来更正图例； “印迹的第一泳道和第二泳道之间的不相关泳道被拼接。”

作者对这个错误表示歉意。
