<p>E<sub>max</sub> was erroneously written as E<sub>max&#x2a;Age</sub>.</p>
<p>A correction has been made to the section <bold>Results</bold>, Endogenous BH4 concentrations in participants with PBD and PKU, Participants with PKU, Paragraph Number 3:</p>
<p>&#x201c;The E<sub>max</sub> and AM50 values were 12.69&#xa0;ng/mL and 2.70 years, respectively. There was essentially no change in central trend of endogenous BH4 concentration in participants with PKU aged &#x3e;2&#xa0;years. This was confirmed with the Pearson correlation analysis for data in the group aged &#x3e;2&#xa0;years, which yielded a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.2265 and a p-value of 0.1656 (Supplementary Figure S1).&#x201d;</p>
