The authors apologize for an error in the ‘Molecular genetic analysis and western
blotting’ section. The first sentence should read:
All affected patients from both families shared rare homozygous mutations in the supervillin
gene (SVIL; OMIM: *604126, transcript NM_021738.2). Family 1 harboured a nonsense
mutation in exon 27, c.4812C>A; p.Tyr1604*, which was not reported in genome databases
(i.e. ExAC, gnomAD, 1000 Genomes Project, dbSNP151, ESP) (Fig. 7A, C and Supplementary
Fig. 1A). This has been corrected.
