This study investigates the degradation of mineral-associated proteins from Spondylus gaederopus mollusc shell. We analysed intracrystalline proteins extracted from powdered shell samples that were artificially aged by heating at 110 °C for different time durations (0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 48, 96, 24...

Claims for exceptional preservation of biomolecules in the fossil record are contested. Here we demonstrate the role of surface stabilisation in significantly prolonging protein sequence survival to ~3.8 million years. The intracrystalline environment of calcite ostrich (Struthionidae) eggshell enca...

Here we show the potential of proteins preserved in Pleistocene eggshell for addressing a longstanding controversy in human and evolution: the identity of the extinct bird that laid the eggs which were exploited by Australia’s first inhabitants. The eggs had been originally attributed to the iconic ...

Palaeoproteomics analysis of archaeological bird eggshells from archaeological Çatalhöyük site. This project aimed to taxonomically identify fragments of eggshells from the site, using a combination of morphological observations (by light microscopy) and protein analyses (MALDI-MS and LC-MS/MS).
