Emergence and intensification of dairying in the Caucasus and Eurasian steppes

ABSTRACT: Archaeological and archaeogenetic evidence points to the Pontic-Caspian steppe zone between the Caucasus and the Black Sea as the crucible from which the earliest steppe pastoralist societies arose and spread, ultimately influencing populations from Europe to Inner Asia. However, little is known about their economic foundations and the factors that may have contributed to their extensive mobility. Here we investigate the dental calculus proteomes of 45 individuals spanning the Neolithic to Greco-Roman periods in the Pontic-Caspian Steppe and neighboring South Caucasus, Oka-Volga-Don, and East Urals regions.

Evidence for long-distance trade in exotic foods and spices from South Asia to the Near East in the 2nd millennium BCE

Project description:Although the key role of long-distance trade in the transformation of cuisines worldwide has been well-documented since at least the Roman era, the prehistory of the Eurasian food trade is less visible. In order to shed light on the transformation of Eastern Mediterranean cuisines during the Bronze and Early Iron Age, we analyzed microremains and proteins preserved in the dental calculus of individuals who lived during the 2nd millennium BCE in the Southern Levant. Our results provide clear evidence for the consumption of expected staple foods, such as cereals (Triticeae), sesame (Sesamum) and dates (Phoenix). We additionally report evidence for the consumption of soybean (Glycine), probable banana (Musa), and turmeric (Curcuma), which pushes back the earliest known availability of these foods in the Mediterranean by centuries (turmeric) or even millennia (soybean). We find that, from the early 2nd millennium onwards, at least some people in the Eastern Mediterranean had access to food from distant locations, including South Asia, and such trade goods likely reached the Eastern Mediterranean in the form of oils, dried fruits, and spices. These novel insights force us to rethink the complexity and intensity of Indo-Mediterranean trade during the Bronze Age and also the degree of globalization in early Eastern Mediterranean cuisine.

Mesenchymal stem cell integrin-associated complexes

Project description:The composition and stiffness of the extracellular matrix (ECM) environment that surrounds Multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) stem cells dictates transcriptional programming, thereby affecting stem cell lineage decision-making. Cells sense force between themselves and their microenvironment controlling the capability of MSCs to differentiate into adipocytes, osteocytes and chondrocytes. Force sensing is transmitted by integrin receptors and their associated adhesion signalling complexes. To identify regulators of MSC force sensing we sought to catalogue MSC adhesion complex composition. Therefore we isolated integrin-associated adhesion complexes formed in MSCs plated on the ECM ligand fibronectin. We identifed proteins using mass spectrometry that define a MSC specific subset of adhesion complex proteins consisting of key linkages to the actin cytoskeleton together with integrin signalling and force sensing components.

Calmodulin proximal interacting proteins revealed through BioID technology in the tachyzoite stage of Toxoplasma gondii

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii is an apicomplexan parasite infecting human and animals, causing huge health concerns and economic losses. Calcium ion, a critical second messenger in cells, can regulate related vital activities, particularly in parasite invasion and escape processes. Calmodulin (CaM) is a short, highly conserved Ca2+ binding protein found in all eukaryotic cells, including apicomplexan parasites. After binding to Ca2+, CaM can be activated to interact with a variety of proteins (such as enzymes). Nevertheless, CaM-interacting proteins have not been identified in T. gondii. We report here the use of T. gondii strain RH△hxgprt expressing the proximity-labeling enzyme BirA* fused to CaM, in combination with LC-MS/MS to specifically identify CaM-interacting proteins. Our study revealed over three hundred of CaM’s proximal interacting proteins in T. gondii. These CaM partners were broadly dispersed throughout the parasite. The majority of their CRISPR fitness scores were below zero, indicating CaM's essential functions in parasites.

Mapping the proteome of the synaptic cleft through peroxidase-based reporter protein SynCAM1-HRP

Project description:Synapses are the brain’s functional units connecting neurons into circuits that underlie memory and behavior. These specialized neuronal junctions are heterogenic in function and molecular composition, reflecting diverse health and disease states. Progress over the past years has shown that trans-synaptic adhesion molecules mediate synapse formation, specification, and differentiation during development. Among the prominently expressed synaptic cleft proteins are SynCAMs, a group of immunoglobulin molecules that engage in homo- and heterophilic interactions and that instruct synapse formation and guide synaptic maturation and that are specific for excitatory synapses. The current study describes the use of peroxidase-mediated proximity labeling to map the proteome of excitatory synapses using SynCAM1 as a reporter protein.

Toxoplasma GRA protein identification

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii is an opportunistic pathogen infecting humans and a variety of vertebrate animals. Secretory dense granule proteins (GRA) are important effectors that mediate host-parasite interactions and facilitate parasitism. Due to the wide host range, T. gondii needs diverse GRA proteins to accommodate parasite survival in different hosts. In this study, we used two proximity based protein labeling techniques to identify novel GRA proteins. Using GRA1 as bait, two transgenic strains expressing GRA1-BirA* or GRA1-APEX were used to biotinylate GRA candidate proteins. Using these methods, 90 proteins were identified by APEX based labeling and 56 by the BirA* approach. Twenty-three were identified by both techniques, among which 13 are known GRA proteins. In combination 98 novel GRA candidates were identified by these two approaches and 25 are known GRAs. The majority of them are only present in coccidian parasites and dispensable for parasite growth in vitro, they likely mediate interactions with hosts and play roles during animal infections.

Drosophila HP1a IP-MS - The composition and organization of Drosophila heterochromatin are heterogeneous and dynamic

Project description:Heterochromatin is enriched for characteristic epigenetic factors, including Heterochromatin Protein 1a (HP1a) and is essential for many organismal functions. However, how this nuclear domain is organized and functions is unclear. We extensively investigated heterochromatin protein compostion by biochemically purifying Drosophila melanogaster HP1a interactors.

Proteomic characterization of Rathayibacter toxicus FH 79 using LC MS/MS

Project description:Rathayibacter toxicus is a gram-positive bacterium that is the causative agent of annual ryegrass toxicity, a disease that causes devastating losses in the Australian livestock industry. This bacterium is poorly characterized, making it difficult to accurately detect in feed samples. Using 1-D gels and mass spectrometry, we analyzed the protein expression of R. toxicus under stationary growth phase conditions to obtain a more complete understanding of the mechanisms of this organism. A total of 333 unique proteins were identified. The data obtained in this analysis is an essential first step toward developing an antibody-based diagnostic assay.
