SANS data from solutions of Complex of Binary toxin receptor (Cqm1) with deuterated BinB component protein in 100% D2O in 25 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 25 mM NaCl, in 100% D2O, pH 7.5 were collected using a 1 m long He3 position sensitive detector detector at a sample-detector distance of 2 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.52 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). One solute concentration of 1.00 mg/ml was measured at 25°C. One 43200 second frame was collected. The data were normalized to the intensity of the transmitted beam and radially averaged; the scattering of the solvent-blank was subtracted.

This data is for a stable complex of receptor Cqm1 protein and deuterated BinB component of mosquito-larvicidal Binary (BinAB) toxin. Deuterated BinB (dBinB) protein was synthesized using E. coli based protein expression system grown in M9+ medium in D2O after three step adaption. The extent of deuteration for dBinB was estimated from contrast (p − s)2 values to be ~77%. Theoretical molecular weight of the dBinB protein includes 77% of D atoms. SANS analysis (DAMMIN and CRYSON fit) suggest that deuterated BinB (dBinB), expectedly, is fully matched out against the used solvent (100% D2O) and only monomer of Cqm1 is modelled from SANS experiments
