Spectrin repeat unit elastic spring constant versus strain-rate frequency on extension (solid squares) and contraction (open squares). Error bars represent the standard deviation of the mean. The extrapolated value of the extension spring constant was found to be 1700 ± 100 pN/nm, and the contraction spring constant was 1800 ± 300 pN/nm.
