We undertook the sexing of mammoth remains (n=21) from the russian site of Kostenki based on enamel protein characterisation. We use amelogenin, a protein that is expressed differently by amelogenin X and Y, depending on the coding gene it originates from (AMELX or AMELY).
ORGANISM(S): Mammuthus primigenius

Identification of the sex of modern, fossil and archaeological animal remains offers many insights into their demography, mortality profiles and domestication pathways. However, due to manifold factors, sex determination of such remains is often impossible. To overcome this, we have developed an inn...

Proteomic sex estimation of human remains via liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC- MS/MS) of sexually dimorphic amelogenin peptides in tooth enamel. The human remains analyzed in this study were recovered from two archaeological sites, Síi Túupentak (CA-ALA-565; ca. 200-600 cal BP) an...

Tooth is a remarkable source of information for paleoanthropologists. Investigation of ancient dental proteomes is able to provide biomolecular data helping at understanding past life. In particular, the enamel protein amelogenin (AMEL) offers the possibilty to determine the sex of the specimen. In ...

Recently, enamel peptides revealed their critical role in sex classification of old skeletal remains. In particular, the presence of protein AMELY (amelogenin isoform Y) within the enamel dental tissue is restricted to the male sex only, while AMELX (isoform X) can be found in both sexes. AMELY can ...
