Abstract
The Sds3 transcriptional corepressor facilitates the assembly of the 1-2 megadalton histone deacetylase (HDAC)-associated Sin3L/Rpd3L complex by providing a crucial homo-dimerization activity. Sds3 engages the scaffolding protein Sin3A, via a bipartite motif within the Sin3 interaction domain (SID) comprising a helix and an extended segment. Here we show that the SID samples two discrete, substantially populated conformations with lifetimes in the tens of milliseconds range. The two conformations differ via a translation of the main chain and the corresponding side chains in the 5 to 7Å range. Given the close proximity of the SID to other functional motifs in Sds3 at the sequence level, the conformational exchange has the potential to regulate these activities.
