Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of Kinesin superfamily protein 3 A/B and Kinesin associated protein 3 in 20 mM TrisHCl, 200 mM NaCl, 5% Glycerol, 1mM DTT pH 8 were collected on the beam line BL-15A2 at the Phton Factory (PF; Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan) using a Pilatus3 2M detector at a sample-detector distance of 2.65 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.1 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ and 2θ is the scattering angle). 815 successive 5 second frames were collected at 20°C using size-exclusion chromatography SAXS. Sample was loaded to Superdex 200 increase 10/300 (GE healthcare). Flow rate was set at 0.1 mL/min. The data were normalized to the intensity of the incident beam and circularly averaged; the scattering of the solvent-blank was subtracted. The extrapolated scattering profile at a concentration of zero was calculated with the data in the descent side of the peak (frames 325–344) by Serial Analyzer. In order to estimate the molecular mass from I(0), PSV (0.739 cm3/g) and the scattering mass contrast (2.698×10^10 cm-2) of this protein were calculated by using MULCh (http://smb-research.smb.usyd.edu.au/NCVWeb/input.jsp).
