In our review article “ATG13: Just a companion, or an executor of the autophagic program?” (Alers S, et al., Autophagy 10:6, 944–56), we stated: “Notably, no Drosophila or C. elegans homolog of Atg17 or RB1CC1 has been described so far.” This statement is incorrect. Two papers described the identification and characterization of Drosophila Atg17/RB1CC1/FIP200 and established that this fly gene is the homolog of the corresponding human gene (Kim M, et al., Autophagy 9:8, 1201–131 and Nagy P, et al., Autophagy 10:3, 453–672). We would like to apologize to the readership of Autophagy in general and to the authors of those 2 manuscripts in particular for this erroneous statement.
