The interaction of the model LK peptide uses the hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions upon formation of the tetrameric structure to control silica growth. The differences in chemical shift between exposed residues is much larger than for the buried residues for the neat peptide and the silica, as would be expected for such a significant change in environment.
