Our paper reported the identification of a nuclear protein complex comprising DNA-PKcs, PIDD, and caspase-2 and characterization of its role in G2/M checkpoint maintenance, thereby providing insight into the functional significance of nuclear caspase-2. We recently identified errors affecting several figure panels where original data were processed inappropriately such that the figure panels do not accurately report the original data. We believe that the most responsible course of action is to retract the paper. We sincerely apologize to the scientific community for any inconvenience that this might cause.
