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...

Genetic, linguistic, and archaeological studies have demonstrated the existence of strong links between eastern and southern Africa over the past millennia, including the diffusion of the first domesticated sheep and goats. However, the proportions at which they were introduced into past human subsi...
Intact glycopeptides in MEVs from bovines, caprines, porcines and humans were comprehensively analyzed by high-resolution mass spectrometry using the sceHCD followed by EThcD fragment method, revealing that protein glycosylation is abundant and heterogeneous in MEVs.

The advent of domestication is a major step that transformed the subsistence strategies of past human societies. In Africa, domestic caprines (sheep and goat) were introduced in the north-eastern part of the continent from the Near East more than 9000 years ago. However, their diffusion southwards w...
