Two different ways of lactylation generation. Kla exists in two classic forms, including KL-la and KD-la. L-lactate not only enters the nucleus to mediate histone lactylation but also modifies non-histone proteins through enzyme-catalyzed reactions. D-lactate modifies non-histone proteins through a non-enzymatic process. *Created with BioRender.com.
