Radius of gyration calculated from the SAXS data by using the Guinier approximation or AUTOGNOM. Error estimates are the standard error of the linear regression and standard deviation, respectively.
D max values estimated by using the indirect transform program AUTOGNOM.
Molecular weight calculated from protein and RNA sequence.
Molecular weight calculated from SAXS data by comparison with the protein standard bovine serum albumin. Error estimates are for propagation of standard error calculated for I(0)/c from linear regression, where I(0) is the forward scattering intensity and c is the concentration of protein in g/l.
