Correction to: Nature Communications https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms10180, published online 19 January 2016
In the version of the article initially published, in both “1st” panels in Fig. 6e, the images labelled “1” were incorrect due to an error in figure preparation (they were sourced from a different but methodologically similar mammosphere experiment done on the same day). The corrected Fig. 6 is shown below. This notice serves to amend the error, and the conclusions of the article remain unchanged.
Corrected Fig. 6
