Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of full-length MERS CoV N -protein complexed with 5-propoxy-1H-indole (P4-1 compound) in 50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, pH 8.5 were collected on the 23A beam line at the Taiwan Photon Source, NSRRC storage ring (Hsinchu, Taiwan) using a Pilatus 1M-F detector at a sample-detector distance of 2.5 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.08 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 300.00 μl sample at 2 mg/ml was injected at a 0.02 ml/min flow rate onto a Agilent Bio SEC-3, 300 Å column at 14.9°C. 36 successive 30 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.
