Abstract

This article has been withdrawn at the request of the editor-in-chief. Following publication of this article, the editor-in-chief discovered evidence of image duplication in Figures 1I, 1J, 3F, S5B, and S6B. Given the duplication of several western blots representing several gene products, the editor-in-chief has lost faith in the findings presented in this article. The authors maintain that these image duplications were the result of errors in file management and do not affect the conclusions of the study.
