Antibody-based sex determination of human skeletal remains (2023)
Journal Article
Shaw, B., Foggin, S., Hamilton-Stanley, P., Barlow, A., Pickard, C., Fibiger, L., …Layfield, R. (2023). Antibody-based sex determination of human skeletal remains. iScience, 26(11), Article 108191. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.isci.2023.108191

Assignment of biological sex to skeletal remains is critical in the accurate reconstruction of the past. Analysis of sex-chromosome encoded AMELX and AMELY peptides from the enamel protein amelogenin underpins a minimally destructive mass spectrometr...

Osteological, multi-isotope and proteomic analysis of poorly-preserved human remains from a Dutch East India Company burial ground in South Africa (2023)
Journal Article
Olszewski, J., Hall, R. A., Kootker, L. M., Oldham, N. J., Layfield, R., Shaw, B., …Schrader, S. A. (2023). Osteological, multi-isotope and proteomic analysis of poorly-preserved human remains from a Dutch East India Company burial ground in South Africa. Scientific Reports, 13, Article 14666. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-41503-9

Skeletal remains discovered in Simon’s Town, South Africa, were hypothesised as being associated with a former Dutch East India Company (VOC) hospital. We report a novel combined osteological and biochemical approach to these poorly-preserved remains...

Cysteine-Selective Modification of Peptides and Proteins via Desulfurative C−C Bond Formation (2023)
Journal Article
Griffiths, R. C., Smith, F. R., Li, D., Wyatt, J., Rogers, D. M., Long, J. E., …Mitchell, N. (2023). Cysteine-Selective Modification of Peptides and Proteins via Desulfurative C−C Bond Formation. Chemistry - A European Journal, 29(16), Article e202202503. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.202202503

The site-selective modification of peptides and proteins facilitates the preparation of targeted therapeutic agents and tools to interrogate biochemical pathways. Among the numerous bioconjugation techniques developed to install groups of interest, t...
