A Correction on
Identification of a novel ANK1 gene variant c.1504-9G>A and its mechanism of intron retention in hereditary spherocytosis

by Xiong T, Xu Z, Wan Q, Chen F, Ye Y, Wang H and Wu C (2024). Front. Genet. 15:1390924. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2024.1390924

In the originally published article, the ANK1 gene variant was incorrectly reported using transcript NM_020475.2 in the Section of 2.2.3 Pathogenic variant confirmation. The correct reference transcript should be NM_001142446.

A correction has been made to the section Materials and methods, subsection 2.2.3 Pathogenic variant confirmation:

“The reference for the ANK1 DNA sequence was NCBI transcript version NM_001142446”.

The original article has been updated.
