Synchrotron SAXS data from solutions of microtubule-associated protein tau (lysine-rich four-repeat domain 4RD) synthetically linked to ubiquitin at tau amino acid C317 in 100 mM NaCl, pH 6.8 were collected on the EMBL P12 beam line at PETRA III (DESY; Hamburg, Germany) using a Pilatus 6M detector at a sample-detector distance of 3 m and at a wavelength of λ = 0.123972 nm (I(s) vs s, where s = 4πsinθ/λ, and 2θ is the scattering angle). One solute concentration of 3.00 mg/ml was measured at 20°C. 20 successive 0.050 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.
