Gcn5 is a chromatin modifying factor whose HAT activity is required to acetylate histone H3 lysine 9 (K9) and K14, which facilitates transcription elongation by relaxing nucleosomes. Butyrolactone 3 specifically inhibits the histone acetyltransferase Gcn5 with an IC50 value of 100 ?M and has an affinity to the Gcn5 enzyme comparable to that of its natural substrate, histone H3.{21590} Butyrolactone 3 can inhibit pre-RNA splicing with an IC50 value of 0.5 mM and as such has been used to investigate Gcn5/PCAF-like HAT functions during assembly of spliceosome before pre-mRNA translation.{21589}
