SANS data from solutions of the BinB/Cqm1 complex in 25 mM HEPES, pD 7.5, 25 mM NaCl, 100% D2O, were collected using a Ingenuously built detector 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 5.00 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.
The BinB component of larvicidal binary toxin binds receptor Cqm1 with high affinity (KD, ~10 nM). The complex migrates as a single particle on Native-PAGE. From its molecular weight and stoichiometry, the complex consists of one molecule each of Cqm1 and BinB proteins. The SANS experiments were performed using a sample reconstituted in 100% D2O. CAUTION! The corresponding model fit to the data relates to the ab initio bead model displayed in this entry and not the atomistic high-resolution model.
