Paleoproteomics, the study of ancient proteins, is a rapidly growing field at the intersection of
molecular biology, paleontology, archaeology, paleoecology, and history. Paleoproteomics …

Natural history collections are invaluable repositories of biological information that provide
an unrivaled record of Earth's biodiversity. Museum genomics—genomics research using …

Abstract The PRoteomics IDEntifications (PRIDE) database is one of the world-leading data
repositories of mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics data. Since the beginning of …

The Cenozoic diversification of placental mammals is the archetypal adaptive radiation. Yet,
discrepancies between molecular divergence estimates and the fossil record fuel ongoing …

In Western Europe, the Middle to Upper Paleolithic transition is associated with the
disappearance of Neandertals and the spread of anatomically modern humans (AMHs) …

Palaeoproteomics is an emerging neologism used to describe the application of mass
spectrometry-based approaches to the study of ancient proteomes. As with palaeogenomics …

Tooth enamel is the outer covering of tooth crowns, the hardest material in the mammalian
body, yet fracture resistant. The extremely high content of 95 wt% calcium phosphate in …

Proteins persist longer in the fossil record than DNA, but the longevity, survival mechanisms
and substrates remain contested. Here, we demonstrate the role of mineral binding in …

Most molecular phylogenetic studies place all placental mammals into four superordinal
groups, Laurasiatheria (eg dogs, bats, whales), Euarchontoglires (eg humans, rodents …

The sequencing of ancient DNA has enabled the reconstruction of speciation, migration and
admixture events for extinct taxa. However, the irreversible post-mortem degradation of …
