Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of Sperm-expressed surface protein in 2.7 mM KCl, 137 mM NaCl, 10 mM Na2HPO4, 1.8 mM KH2PO4, pH 7.4 were collected on the 16ID (Lix) beam line at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II; Upton, USA) using a Pilatus-1M SAXS detector and at a wavelength of λ = 0.08188 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). Two detector distances were used. SAXS (3.73065 m) and WAXS (0.32269 m). In-line size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) SAS was employed. The SEC parameters were as follows: A 30.00 μl sample at 6.5 mg/ml was injected at a 0.50 ml/min flow rate onto a GE Superdex 200 Increase 5/150 column at 10°C. The data were normalized to the intensity of the transmitted beam and radially averaged; the scattering of the solvent-blank was subtracted.
