This Article contains errors in the Methods section under subheading ‘Encoding probe staining’.

“Then 30 μL of ∼300 μM encoding probes and 3.3 μM of poly(dT) LNA anchor probe (a 20-nt sequence of alternating dT and thymidine-locked nucleic acid (dT+) with a 20-nt reverse complement of a readout sequence and a 5′-acrydite modification (Integrated DNA Technologies)) in encoding hybridization buffer was added to the surface of Parafilm (Bemis) and was covered with a cell-containing coverslip.”
