The yeast silent information regulators Sir2, Sir3, and Sir4 physically interact with one another to establish a transcriptionally silent state by forming repressive chromatin structures. The Sir4 protein contains binding sites for both Sir2 and Sir3, and these protein-protein interactions are required for gene silencing. Here, we report the X-ray structure of the coiled-coil dimerization motif within the C-terminus of Sir4 and show that it forms a stable 1:1 complex with a dimeric fragment of Sir3 (residues 464-978). We have identified a cluster of residues on the surface of the Sir4 coiled coil required for specific interactions with Sir3. The histone deacetylase Sir2 can also bind to this complex, forming a ternary complex with the truncated Sir3 and Sir4 proteins. The dual interactions of Sir4 with Sir3 and Sir2 suggest a physical basis for recruiting Sir3 to chromatin by virtue of its interactions with Sir4 and with deacetylated histones in chromatin.
