Figure 4 |. Solution SAXS analysis of intracapsid DNA structure.

Figure 4 |

(a) Background subtracted SAXS data, I(q) versus q, for HSV-1 A-capsid (blue curve) and C-capsid (red curve). The inset figure shows a zoomed-in region of the DNA diffraction peak from C-capsid. AU, arbitrary units. (b) DNA-DNA interaxial spacing d as a function of temperature for DNA packaged in HSV-1 capsid in TE buffer. (c) Area of the DNA diffraction peak in arbitrary units as a function of temperature for HSV-1 C-capsid in TE buffer. The error bars in b and c are calculated from the Gaussian curve fitting of the DNA diffraction peak.
