Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Aberrant RHOA activation drives tumor progression, yet regulatory mechanisms beyond genetic mutations remain poorly defined. Lactylation, a lactate-derived post-translational modification, links metabolic reprogramming to oncogenesis, but its functional mimicry of genetic mutations is unexplored. This study investigates RHOA lactylation at oncogenic hotspots and its role as an "epi-mutation" system....
