There are no models related to this curve.

Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of N-terminal truncated RAD51 in complex with fourth BRC repeat (BRC4) at 2 mg/mL in 20 mM K₂HPO₄/KH₂PO₄, 100 mM NaCl, 200 mM Li₂SO₄, 5% glycerol, 1 mM DTT, pH 8 were collected on the B21 beam line at the Diamond Light Source storage ring (Didcot, UK) using a Eiger 4M detector at a sample-detector distance of 3.7 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.09464 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 15°C. 21 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.

Molecular weight has been inferred through Volume of Correlation (Vc). Sample molecular weight and monodispersity has been independently confirmed through static light scattering (SLS).
