GSK-699, also written GSK699, is a cereblon-recruiting PROTAC degrader targeting the acetyltransferase paralogs PCAF and GCN5, also known as KAT2B and KAT2A. Public sources describe it as a cell-penetrant degrader that promotes ubiquitination and degradation of these SAGA-complex-associated histone acetyltransferases. Its target-protein ligand recognizes the PCAF/GCN5 module, while the CRBN ligand recruits the CRL4-cereblon E3 ligase complex; the linker enables formation of a productive target–degrader–ligase complex. Mechanistically, GSK-699 reduces PCAF/GCN5 protein levels and thereby modulates histone acetyltransferase-dependent transcriptional and inflammatory outputs. It is useful for studying SAGA complex biology, histone acetylation regulation, inflammatory mediator expression, chromatin-dependent transcription, degradation of epigenetic enzymes, and comparisons between bromodomain or catalytic inhibition and full protein depletion.

Target: GSK-699 targets KAT2A/GCN5 and KAT2B/PCAF histone acetyltransferases.
Binding site: Its acetyltransferase ligand engages the catalytic HAT domain substrate-binding region.
Mechanism of action: GSK-699 is a cell-penetrant CRBN-recruiting PROTAC degrader of KAT2A/B acetyltransferase family members. The molecule links a GCN5/PCAF-directed ligand to a cereblon ligand, enabling recruitment of KAT2A, KAT2B, PCAF, and GCN5 to CRL4CRBN ubiquitin ligase machinery. Productive ternary-complex formation promotes proteasome-dependent degradation and reduces SAGA-associated histone acetyltransferase activity, including decreased H3K9ac levels. GSK-699 is useful for studying acetyltransferase-dependent transcription, chromatin regulation, inflammatory signaling, and degradation-based modulation of SAGA complex enzymatic function.
