Interpretation of solution scattering data from lipid nanodiscs.
Journal of Applied Crystallography 2018 Februrary 2
The structural information contained in solution scattering data from empty lipid nanodiscs is examined in the context of a multi-component geometric model. X-ray scattering data were collected on nanodiscs of different compositions at scattering vector magnitudes up to 2.0 Å-1 . Through the calculation of the partial form factor for each of the nanodisc components before the isotropic average, structural parameters in the model were correlated to the features observed in the X-ray scattering data and to the corresponding distance distribution function. It is shown that, in general, the features at ∼0.3-0.6 Å-1 in the scattering data correlate to the bilayer structure. The data also support the argument that the elliptical shape of nanodiscs found in model fitting is physical, rather than an artefact due to the nanodisc size distribution. The lipid chain packing peak at ∼1.5 Å-1 is visible in the data and reflects the lipid bilayer phase transition. The shape change in the distance distribution function across the phase transition suggests that the nanodiscs are more circular in the fluid phase. The implication of these findings for model fitting of empty and protein-loaded nanodiscs is discussed.
