Data displayed as the mean ± s.d., n = 3 independent experiments. ****P < 0.0001 by two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-test. For b, e and h, boxes represent the median, upper and lower quartiles, whiskers represent 1.5× the interquartile range, with individual values superimposed. Data compared using Kruskal–Wallis ANOVA test and post-hoc Dunn multiple comparison test. Scale bars, 10 μm (c,f,g,i) or 2 μm (insets of c,f,g,i). Unprocessed immunoblots, numerical data and P values are provided as source data.
