SEC-SAXS data were collected at beamline B21, Diamond Light Source (Didcot, UK) that operates at a wavelength of 0.1 nm at a photon flux of ~10¹² photons per second and features a fixed camera length of 4.014 m. It is equipped with an Agilent 1200 HPLC system. Tag-free chicken Netrin-1 ΔC was shipped injection-ready to the beamline at 5.8 mg/ml in 20 mM tris, pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl (sample1). 50 µl of sample was injected into a size exclusion column equilibrated with the respective buffer (matched to the sample by overnight dialysis). For sample1, we used a Shodex KW403-4F column with a flow rate of 0.16 ml/min. The elution traces were assessed with the program BioXTAS RAW which showed two overlapping peaks, indicating the presence of at least two different scattering components. Using the evolving factor analysis (EFA) implemented in BioXTAS RAW, we deconvoluted the scattering signals of the monomeric component.
