Correction to: Communications Biology https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-021-02279-8, published online 1 July 2021.

The original published version of the Article contained an error in the abstract whereby the words “loss of” were inadvertently omitted from the following sentence: “We show that loss of Slc16a13 increases mitochondrial respiration in the liver, leading to reduced hepatic lipid accumulation and increased hepatic insulin sensitivity in high-fat diet fed Slc16a13 knockout mice.” The error has been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of the Article.
