Histone lactylation: A new epigenetic axis for host-parasite signalling in malaria?
2022-09-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Epigenetic marks such as histone acetylation and methylation play important roles in the biology and virulence of malaria parasites. Here I report that histone lactylation is also found in these parasites, and speculate on its potential functions. Lactylation is a new epigenetic modification, discovered only in 2019 in human cells. This nascent field has since focussed largely on human biology,...
