P.20433 left column 3rd paragraph: "To measure the contour lengths of the various protein domains, the force–distance data were transformed into contour length space using a worm-like chain (WLC) model (ref 20). [Investigators] assumed a fixed persistence length of 0.4 nm, which was previously found to be appropriate for modeling protein unfolding in a high force (>50 pN) regime (primary source). After WLC transformation, cross-correlation (ref 22) of the data traces was performed to align the traces and correct for the polydispersity of the PEG [Polyethylene glycol] spacers. The transformed data traces were then combined to produce a barrier position histogram that exhibited characteristic contour length increments. This data transformation and analysis process is depicted in Fig. S3." |
