While our PDB dataset would ideally contain a large percentage of both disordered and globular proteins, intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) that lack secondary or tertiary structure only comprise about 30% of the eukaryotic proteome. Also a large fraction of the structural information in the PDB are for globular proteins with almost 90% of structures from crystallography while the other 10% are from solution NMR and electron microscopy. Although we attempted to diversify our PDB dataset, it still included approximately 64% of structures from X-ray crystallography. CRYSOL is a powerful program in the ATSAS package that enables computation of theoretical SAXS curves given a PDB structure file as an input. While other groups have also implemented this program to obtain information about IDPs, CRYSOL is limited by size or Dmax due to its use of spherical harmonics which can make the program challenging for generating SAXS profiles of extended proteins. Especially for IDPs, the maximum number of harmonics (50) should be selected, but there remains the possibility to provide experimental scattering data to CRYSOL to improve fitting.
