Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of F-actin in F-buffer at an actin concentration of 2 mg/mL in 50 mM KCl, 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM ATP, 0.1% 2-mercaptoethanol, pH 8 were collected on the EMBL P12 beam line at the PETRA III storage ring (DESY; Hamburg, Germany) using a Pilatus 2M detector at a sample-detector distance of 3.1 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.155 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). One solute concentration of 2.00 mg/ml was measured at 10°C. 20 successive 0.050 second frames were collected. The data were normalized to the intensity of the transmitted beam and radially averaged; the scattering of the solvent-blank was subtracted.

CAUTION: The calculated p(r) is categorised as a SUSPICIOUS solution.
