摘要
HATs off! The development of the first cell-permeable small-molecule inhibitor of the human histone acetyltransferase (HAT) Gcn5 opens up new possibilities for understanding the histone code. Based on kinetic data and the proposed mechanism of the acetylation by Gcn5, the relatively simple butyrolactone structure of the inhibitor was identified.
