Transponse a list of lists from 2nd element in python

Question

list_of_lists = [[1, 2, 3, 4], [1, 5, 6, 7], [1, 8, 9, 10]]

I would like to get to: transposed_list = [[1, 2, 5, 8], [1, 3, 6, 9], [1, 4, 7, 10]]

In other words, only transpose from the 2nd element in the list, keeping the first element in place.

Try:

list_of_lists = [[1, 2, 3, 4], [1, 5, 6, 7], [1, 8, 9, 10]]

out = [
    [list_of_lists[i][0]] + list(l)
    for i, l in enumerate(zip(*(l[1:] for l in list_of_lists)))
]
print(out)

Prints:

[[1, 2, 5, 8], [1, 3, 6, 9], [1, 4, 7, 10]]
