Authors and Affiliations
Contributions
T.X. and Z.Q. performed the experiments. T.X., Z.Q., X.W., E.M.D. and S.D. wrote the manuscript. C.D., E.M.D. and S.D. edited the manuscript. All of the authors read and approved the manuscript. Because this is a Reply to the Comment by W. Xu et al.2, we only included those authors who were responsible for the previous study1, who were involved in addressing the comments by W. Xu et al.2 and who produced data included in the Reply. The other authors from our previous study1 are therefore not included.
