Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of Surface Protein G (SasG) EG5 repeat protein G51-G55 in 20 mM Tris 200 mM NaCl 1 mM EDTA 20 mM Tris.Cl, pH 7.5 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 = 0.12 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). One solute concentration of 7.00 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.

SAXS was used to determine whether the EG5 repeat forms an extended rod-like structure in solution.
