Correction

After publication of our recent article [1], we noticed that this study was initiated in Qian Chen's lab and that we had inadvertently omitted Qian Chen as a co-author. The study was also supported by other grants from NIH. Revised acknowledgment and authors' contribution paragraphs appear below.

The author list is now complete and the competing interests section modified accordingly.
