Following publication of the original article (Shi et al. 2021), the authors have identified errors in Figs. 1d and 3i which occurred during the figure assembly process. The β-actin bands in Fig. 1d were mistakenly compiled from similar experiments in a previous publication by the same group (Gong et al. 2014), conducted within the same time frame as the experiments in Fig. 1d. To address this, the authors made corrections in Fig. 1d in this revision. Furthermore, the β-catenin band in Fig. 3a was inadvertently reused in Fig. 3i, and the new Fig. 3 containing the correct β-catenin in Fig. 3i has been provided below.Fig. 1.
