Figure 5.
(A) Least-square fit (red lines) of the SAXS scattering data (symbols) by the linear combination of the simulated I(q) for the different PANS in Fig. 1; vertical offset (y axis) for clarity. Experimental equilibrium I(q) are for 601NP nucleosomes in 50% sucrose reported earlier (32) for five different NaCl concentrations: 0.2, 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2.0 M. Best fits to experiment are shown as solid lines; χ2 were 1.56, 2.07, 0.83, 0.87, and 1.14, respectively. (B) Composition of the best fit mixture of the modeled PANS as a function of salt concentration. To see this figure in color, go online.
