Guidelines for articles reporting structural modelling of small-angle scattering (SAS) data

For structures determined by small-angle scattering, authors should deposit their data at the SASBDB (https://www.sasbdb.org/) in advance of submission to the journal and provide the SASBDB reference code(s).

Authors should follow the publication guidelines published in Trewhella et al. [Acta Cryst. (2017), D73, 710-728]. By using the guidelines that this article recommends, authors publishing structural biology studies using small-angle scattering (SAXS or SANS) will ensure their readers understand the quality of their data and the validity of models presented. The paper provides examples of data sets and modelling approaches.
