Resistance of V900 to degradation by matrix metalloproteases. V900 and etanercept were incubated with recombinant human matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) 3 and 12 for 19 or 22 h, respectively. Pre- and post-digestion samples were analysed by Western blotting alongside buffer only (no enzyme) controls. V900 was detected using a polyclonal rabbit α-SDA primary and an HRP-conjugated polyclonal swine anti-rabbit secondary antibody. Etanercept was detected using peroxidase conjugated anti-human IgG specific for Gamma-chains. Due to the high sensitivity of etanercept to MMPs, some degradation was observed in the time zero samples. Blots were visualised using an ImageQuant LAS4000 (Cytiva) on the Chemiluminescensce setting for 1 s (etanercept) or 30 s (V900). L = SuperSignal Prestained ladder. MW = Molecular weight in kDa (vertical numbers). Full length blots are shown in Supplementary Fig. S4.
