Failure data for control networks and networks with PGs removed

Simulation	Peak stress	Failure strain, %
Control	3.96 ± 0.14	108.6 ± 9.0
PGs digested, 30%	3.36 ± 0.19*	93.6 ± 5.6*
PGs digested, 40%	3.08 ± 0.14*†	94.3 ± 7.3*
PGs digested, 50%	2.97 ± 0.20*†	93.6 ± 6.9*
PGs digested, 60%	2.80 ± 0.35*†	92.6 ± 6.4*

For all simulations, the number of random networks used was 7.

*, significant difference from control (P < 0.05);

†, significant difference form 30% PGs digested (P < 0.05).
