Correction to: Cell Research (2018) 28:204–220. doi:https://doi.org/10.1038/cr.2018.1; published online 9 January 2018

We apologize for an error that we just found in the paper published online on January 9th, 2018. The 2nd column/6th row of Figure 5B (Hoxd13-DKO) was inadvertently duplicated from 2nd column/5th row of Figure 5B (Hoxd13-WT). A corrected version of Figure 5B is provided below. No conclusion was affected by this error, but we apologize for not detecting it before publication.

We also regret for the failure to acknowledge the technical support by Ms Rong Hu towards the generation of ChIP-seq of Rad21 in wild type and dCD MLL3/4 mutant mouse ES cells. We would like to add the following statement in the section of Acknowledgments: “We also thank Ms Rong Hu for her technical assistance in ChIP-seq experiments.”
