Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of guanylate cyclase (NO bound) in 50 mM KH2PO4,150 mM NaCl, 2% glycerol, 500 µM NO, pH 7.4 were collected on the 12.3.1 (SIBYLS) beam line at the Advanced Light Source (ALS; Berkeley, CA, USA) using a Pilatus3 X 2M detector at a sample-detector distance of 2.1 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.1127 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 60.00 μl sample at 7 mg/ml was injected at a 0.45 ml/min flow rate onto a Shodex KW-800 series column at 20°C. 20 successive 3 second frames were collected through the SEC elution peak of the sample. The data were normalized to the intensity of the transmitted beam and radially averaged; the scattering of the solvent-blank was subtracted.
