      This valuable study reveals a role for lactylation in influenza polymerase function and virus replication. The evidence supporting the claims is solid, although the direct involvement of ATAT1 and SIRT1 in this modification and the functional relevance of the identified sites can be further substantiated. These findings will appeal broadly to influenza virologists studying polymerase regulation, as well as researchers investigating the functional roles of lactylation.

      eLife Assessment

      This study presents important findings that genome-wide DNA double-strand breaks trigger large-scale genomic amplification (DIGA), which does not require origin re-licensing, but is dependent on some proteins that are involved in break-induced replication (BIR). While the findings and model are compelling, the evidence supporting the claims is largely incomplete, as it depends primarily on a single assay to examine amplification. This work will be of interest to scientists in the DNA repair, replication, and cell cycle fields, as well as cancer biologists.
