Synchrotron SAXS
data from solutions of
Fep1 wild type with [2Fe2S] cluster reconstituted
in
50 mM MOPS, 50 mM NaCl, pH 7
were collected
on the
BM29 beam line
at the ESRF storage ring
(Grenoble, France)
using a Pilatus 1M detector
at a sample-detector distance of 2.9 m and
at a wavelength of λ = 0.0999 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 40.00 μl sample
at 3.4 mg/ml was injected at a 0.40 ml/min flow rate
onto a GE Superdex 75 Increase 5/150 column
at 20°C.
900 successive
1 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.
Purified Fep1 was reconstituted with 2 stoichiometric excess of (FeCl3 and Na2S) in 50 mM MOPS, 50 mM NaCl, 1 mM TCEP pH 7.0, then the excess of Fe was eliminated by passing the solution into a PD10 column.
Then the purified reconstituted protein was concentrated and the concentration was measured to be 3.43 mg/ml.
Two successive HPLC run were performed on two injections by 40 microL each and the frames from the 2 main elution peaks were merged and analysed with Chromixs. The I(q) vs q were solvent subtracted by using the first 20 frames of the HPLC run, after being averaged.
The same SEC column as for Fep1 wild type was used.
