Summary

Segmental order parameters confirm that elastic lipid chain distortions are insufficient to compensate fully for the mismatch, but the dependence on chain length with tryptophan-anchored peptides requires that the free energy density of hydrophobic mismatch should increase with increasing extent of mismatch.
