Obtained from a two-Gaussian fit using the program DD.20 No significant differences are found using three-Gaussian fits or validated Tikhonov regularization22 (see Tables S2–S5).
The P(r) distributions for the C38-R1/C280-R1 and T39C-R1/E308C-R1 constructs contain an additional broad component with widths of 13 and 20 Å, respectively, and corresponding mean distances of 56 and 58 Å, respectively, very close to the mean distance of the narrow component (see the Experimental section of the Supporting Information).
Values in parentheses refer to conformer populations.
