Following the publication of this article, an interested reader drew to our attention an anomaly associated with the presentation of Figs. 5 and 8; essentially, the β-actin control bands in Fig. 8 appeared to be a mirror image of the same control bands shown in Fig. 5A.

After having re-examined the data, Fig. 5 was correctly presented as shown in the paper, although the β-actin blot in Fig. 8 had been inadvertently misplaced as a mirror image of the control data from Fig. 5. Two similar experiments were performed at that time, yielding similar results, and the error with the control data did not affect the second of the experiments. Therefore, we present a corrected version of Fig. 8 containing the alternative data. The findings and conclusions of this paper are still supported by our experimental data, and were not affected by this error. We sincerely apologize for this mistake, and thank the reader of our article who drew this matter to our attention. Furthermore, we regret any inconvenience this mistake has caused.
