Short-chain fatty acids and their corresponding acyl-CoAs sit at the crossroads of metabolic pathways and play important roles in diverse cellular processes. They are also precursors for protein post-translational lysine acylation modifications. A noteworthy example is the newly identified lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (K<sub>hib</sub>) that is derived from 2-hydroxyisobutyrate and 2-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA. Histone K<sub>hib</sub> has been shown to be associated with active gene expression in s ...[more]
