AMINO ACIDS AND PROTEINS IN FOSSIL BIOMINERALS An essential
cross-disciplinary guide to the proteins that form biominerals and
that are preserved in the fossil record?? Amino Acids and Proteins
in Fossil Biominerals is an authoritative guide to the patterns of
survival and degradation of ancient biomolecules in the fossil
record. The author brings together new research in
biomineralization and ancient proteins to describe mechanisms of
protein diagenesis. The book draws on the author's experiences as
well as current information from three research fields:
geochemistry, archaeology and Quaternary sciences. The author
examines the history of the study of ancient proteins, from the
dating of Quaternary biominerals to the present advances in shotgun
proteomics, and discusses their applications across archaeology,
geology and evolutionary biology. This important guide:?? Explores
the main components of biominerals Describes the breakdown of
proteins in fossils Reviews the applications of ancient protein
studies Written for students and researchers of biomolecular
archaeology and palaeontology, Amino Acids and Proteins in Fossil
Biominerals provides a cross-disciplinary guide to the proteins
responsible for the formation of biominerals and to the survival of
biomolecules in the archaeological and palaeontological record.
This book forms one volume of the popular New Analytical Methods in
Earth and Environmental Science Series.
