Lysine residues marked in blue are novel and have not been previously documented in the literature for acetylation modification in GBM, patients.

p-value≤0.05: significant; p-value>0.05; ns: not significant.

√: signifies HAT1 enzymes expression is upregulated, with the significant positive correlation between HAT1 and Ube2E1, Ube2H and Ube2C, Ube2J2, Ube2S.

χ: signifies KAT2A enzyme expression is downregulated, with a not significant association between KAT2A and Ube2E1, Ube2A.

χ: signifies CREBBP, EP300, KAT2B, and KAT5 enzyme expression is not significant, with no significant association between CREBBP, and Ube2S; EP300 and Ube2C; KAT2B and Ube2C, Ube2S; KAT5 and Ube2J2.

The pink rectangle box represents the first proposed therapeutic axis in GBM.

The brown rectangle box represents the second proposed therapeutic axis in GBM.
