We published a new paper on enamel paleoproteomics from teeth up to 18 million years old from the Turkana Basin in Kenya. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Eighteen million years of diverse enamel proteomes from the East African Rift - Nature
The isolation of dental proteins from fossils deposited 1.5 million to 18 million years ago in the Turkana Basin in Kenya, a tropical region, demonstrate the promise of dental enamel for palaeoproteom...

Check out our new paper, led by former postdoc and current colleague Daniel Green on 18 Ma proteins in fossil teeth! Tim Cleland, a proteomics wizard, did the measurements. What's the take home? We hope to use protein fingerprints to study mammal and hominin phylogenetics! bit.ly/OldProteome
