Figure Lengend Snippet: a , IHC staining with pan-Kla antibody in postoperative tumour specimens from patients with NAC-sensitive or NAC-resistant gastric cancer. Scale bars, 50 μm. b , AGS-P and AGS-R cells were lysed for immunoblotting. c , AGS-P cells were subjected to laser microirradiation and stained with anti-pan-Kla and anti-γH2AX. Representative of n = 20 cells. Scale bars, 5 μm. d , Volcano plot showing global lysine lactylation changes in AGS-R cells compared with AGS-P cells. e , Cell lysates of AGS-P and AGS-R were immunoprecipitated with anti-NBS1 or control IgG, followed by immunoblotting. f , Identification and quantification of NBS1 K388 lactylation. LC–MS/MS analysis of modified VS(Kla)MEQK is shown. g , AGS-P and AGS-NBS1(K388R) cells were treated with lactate (20 mM) for 24 h, and whole-cell extracts were collected for immunoprecipitation with anti-NBS1 antibody, followed by immunoblotting. h , The cofactor pocket of TIP60 (PDB: 2OU2 ) bound to acetyl-CoA (left) and lactyl-CoA (right). TIP60 is shown in cartoon representation. The transfer group in acetyl-CoA or lactyl-CoA is indicated with red circles. i , Endogenous co-immunoprecipitation assays in AGS-P cells. j , Purified NBS1 was incubated with GST-TIP60, followed by GST pull-down assay and immunoblotting with anti-NBS1. k , AGS-P cells were treated with cisplatin (2.5 μM) for 6 h, and whole-cell extracts were collected for immunoprecipitation with the indicated antibodies, followed by immunoblot analysis. l , m , AGS-P cells were transfected with Flag–TIP60 ( l ) or small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting TIP60 (siTIP60) (TIP60 is encoded by KAT5 ) or non-targeting siRNA (NC) and analysed by immunoblotting. 1 and 2 represent two independent small interfering RNAs. n , Left, in vitro lactylation assay showing lysine lactyltransferase activity of TIP60. Right, TIP60-mediated histone H4 acetylation served as positive control. Data are mean ± s.d. P values by two-sided Mann–Whiney test ( a ) or two-sided t -test ( d ). Gel source data are presented in Supplementary Fig. .
