29 million years of diverse mammalian proteomes recovered from the East African Rift System

Description

Here, we sample small proteomes from the interior enamel of 10 fossils deposited at seven paleontological sites between 1.5 and 29 Ma in the Turkana Basin, a region of northern Kenya in the East African Rift System. We find enamel protein fragments in all fossil specimens including a 29 Ma Arsinoitherium from Topernawi, belonging to a now extinct mammalian order. Identified proteins include the classical structural enamel proteins amelogenin, enamelin, and ameloblastin, but also uncommon enamel proteins including collagens and proteases. Protein fragment abundance and average length decline in progressively older fossils, but we observe significant variability in Early Miocene preservation from site to site, with proboscidean fossils from 16 Ma Buluk preserving substantially more proteins than Rhinocerotidae and Anthracotheriidae fossils from the marginally older Locherangan (18 Ma) and Hippopotamidae from the younger site of Napudet (c. 5-11 Ma). Most specimens yield known clade-specific diagenetiforms that support field taxonomic identifications, with the notable exception of the Arsinoitherium that is without living relatives. Consensus phylogenetic trees suggest the potential for paleoproteomics in supporting taxonomic identifications and resolving evolutionary relationships of extinct taxa but should be approached with caution due to sometimes sparse fragment identification and the potential for sequence diagenesis. We identify numerous likely modifications that support the ancient age of these proteins, and the oldest examples of advanced glycation end-products and carbamylation yet known. The persistence of protein sequences within dense enamel tissues in one of the persistently warmest places on Earth promises the discovery of far older proteomes that will aid in the study of the biology and evolutionary relationships of extinct taxa.

Click here to queue conversion of this dataset's submitted spectrum files to open formats (e.g. mzML). This process may take some time.

When complete, the converted files will be available in the "ccms_peak" subdirectory of the dataset's FTP space (accessible via the "FTP Download" link to the right).
Number of distinct conditions across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct condition labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "Condition" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct biological replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct replicate labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "BioReplicate" or "Replicate" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct technical replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

The technical replicate count is defined as the maximum number of times any one distinct combination of condition and biological replicate was analyzed across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category. In the case of fractionated experiments, only the first fraction is considered.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Originally identified proteins that were automatically remapped by MassIVE to proteins in the SwissProt human reference database.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct protein accessions reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct unmodified peptide sequences reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct peptide sequences (including modified variants or peptidoforms) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Total number of peptide-spectrum matches (i.e. spectrum identifications) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins quantified across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins found to be differentially abundant in at least one comparison across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

A protein is differentially abundant if its change in abundance across conditions is found to be statistically significant with an adjusted p-value <= 0.05 and lists no issues associated with statistical tests for differential abundance.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
This dataset may not contain all raw spectra data as originally deposited in PRIDE. It has been imported to MassIVE for reanalysis purposes, so its spectra data here may consist solely of processed peak lists suitable for reanalysis with most software.
