Part II: Proteomics Target Approach for Taxonomic and Sex Identification in Modern and Archaeological Enamel Caprines


ABSTRACT: In this study, we applied proteomic analytical methods to modern caprine (sheep, Ovis aries and goat, Capra hircus) tooth enamel to establish a reliable method for identifying species-specific and sex-specific peptides. Utilizing single amino acid variations (SAAVs) in Enamelin (Enam) and Amelogenin (Amel) proteins, we developed a targeted parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) assay to identify molecular markers preserved in enamel of modern caprines.

Proteomics has become a transformative tool for species and sex determination. This study introduces a novel methodology that integrates amelogenin (Amel) and enamelin (Enam) proteins extracted from the tooth enamel of caprines. Since morphologically, osteological remains of sheep and goats often cannot be easily discriminated, we developed our method on both modern domestic sheep (<i>Ovis aries</i>) and goats (<i>Capra hircus</i>) to establish unique proteomic signatures for each species for se  ...[more]
