The charge of the ELP has an impact on the rate of rearrangement (kt) as peptides adsorb to a gold surface. Values of kt were obtained via nonlinear curve fitting of time-resolved frequency monitoring data (found in Fig. 2) with a bi-exponential kinetic model described in Eq. 1 and 2. Standard errors of the kt parameter estimates were 0.04–0.25 × 10−4 s−1 (error bars not shown due to small size). Note that the y-axis should be multiplied by 10−4.
