Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of Human acetylcholinesterase, apo in 50 mM Tris/HCl, 100 mM NaCl, pH 7.4 were collected on the BL4-2 beam line at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL) storage ring (Menlo Park, CA, USA) using a Rayonix MX225-HE detector (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). One solute concentration of 2.00 mg/ml was measured at 22°C. 10 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.

Apo human acetylcholinesterase (UniProt ID P22303-1) with glycosylation at N265 and N464, starting at amino acid 32 and truncated at amino acid 578, plus a GPL sequence insert at the N-terminus. X-ray wavelength: UNKNOWN.
