Competing Interests
The authors have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts: TJC and LY have applied for patent protection on the CHEC-9 peptide used in this work. There are no further products in development or marketed products to declare. This does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLoS ONE policies on sharing data and materials, as detailed online in the guide for authors.
