Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of Pseudomonas putida CBB5 NdmA hexamer in 20 mM HEPES 150 mM NaCl 2 mM TCEP, pH 7.5 were collected on the BL-10C beam line at the Photon Factory (PF), High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) storage ring (Tsukuba, Japan) using a Pilatus3 2M detector at a sample-detector distance of 3 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.15 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). In-line size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) SAS was employed. The SEC parameters were as follows: A 200.00 μl sample at 12.1 mg/ml was injected at a 0.05 ml/min flow rate onto a GE Superdex 200 Increase 10/300 column at 18°C. 32 successive 10 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.
