The Editorial Office has been made aware of potential issues surrounding the scientific validity of this paper and is hence issuing a permanent expression of concern to notify readers.

Unexpected similarities have been noted between the MRPL42 bands presented in Figure 2B of the manuscript and the Caspase-3 band presented in Wang et al. 2018 (DOI: 10.1042/BSR20180574 [retracted]) following a vertical flip. The authors have been contacted for comment and have not responded or provided the requested raw data.

As the issues are unable to be resolved, this expression will remain published permanently or until further evidence arises.
