#palaeoproteomic
I am proud of the work we did here!!!!

Even prouder of the advocacy we did to have the first A. africanus palaeoproteomic data published in a South African journal, and the abstract was also in Setswana, which meant my mom could read it as well!
Thrilled to share that the 2025 SAJS paper with the highest attention score was led by our @palaeoprotpalesa.bsky.social, with nearly 4,000 abstract views!

The study identified 2 Myr-old proteins from Paranthropus robustus, revealing biological sex & genetic variability

MiddleEarth aims to provide unique insights into the hominin occupation histories in Central Eurasia by applying palaeoproteomic methods to a selected number of archaeological sites in the region.

The results will be coupled with fresh palaeogenomic and palaeoproteomic datasets for Danish Late Iron Age and Viking Age sheep along with zooarchaeological, landscape archaeological and textile archaeological data for a (hopefully) novel and comprehensive analysis of wool production in LIA/VIK DK.

A library of avian proteins improves palaeoproteomic taxonomic identification and reveals widespread intraspecies variability
A library of avian proteins improves palaeoproteomic taxonomic identification and reveals widespread intraspecies variability - Nature Communications
Here, the authors present eggshell protein sequences for 112 ducks, geese, and swans, species important to archaeological and ecological investigations. They then use these palaeoproteomic benchmarks to identify archaeological material from Mexico and Jordan.

Palaeoproteomic analysis of the same samples confirmed the preservation of proteins from the very same oral microbiome species detected through DNA. This demonstrates the power of combining aDNA and protein analysis to build a more complete picture of ancient biological substrates.👩‍🔬➕

The importance of open science cannot be overstated and I'm very grateful and proud to have been able to play a part in this community-led paper by PAASTA to provide guidelines and recommendations for improving accessibility and reproducibility in palaeoproteomic research!
Delighted to be bringing you the following PAASTA community-led paper outlining our recommendations for best practices and open science in palaeoproteomics! Congratulations to the authors and for anyone keen to read the paper, it can be found #OpenAccess here: doi.org/10.24072/pcj...
