Fig. 2: Histone lysine lactylation in cancer.
From: Protein lactylation in cancer: mechanisms and potential therapeutic implications

a–d Histone lysine lactylation is related to protumorigenic gene expression (a), lincRNA and circular RNA expression (b) RNA methylation (c) and resistance to cancer therapy (d). e The histone H3 variant CENPA is lactylated to induce HCC proliferation.
