Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of Thomasclavelia ramosa immunoglobulin A protease middle (protease) domain in 25 mM HEPES, 1 mM TCEP, pH 7.5 were collected on the ID7A1 BioSAXS / HP-Bio Beamline beam line at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) storage ring (Ithaca, NY, USA) using a Eiger 4M detector at a wavelength of λ = 0.11013 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). One solute concentration of 1.83 mg/ml was measured at 25°C. 15 successive 1 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.
