SAXS data from solutions of double-stranded RNA-binding protein Staufen homolog 1 with truncated RNA-binding domain 2 and truncated Staufen-swapping (ΔSSM) motif bound to the 3'UTR fragment of ADP-ribosylation factor 1 in 50 mM TRIS, 300 mM NaCl, 3.8 mM β-mercaptoethanol, pH 7 were collected using a Rigaku BioSAXS-2000 instrument at CEITEC (Brno, Czech Republic) equipped with a Rigaku HyPix-3000 detector at a sample-detector distance of 0.5 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.154 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). One solute concentration of 3.20 mg/ml was measured at 20°C. One 3600 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.
