Cleaning the Dead: Optimized decontamination enhances palaeoproteomic analyses of Pleistocene skeletal material

Z. Fagernäs, V. Villa Islas, G. Troche, J.-P. Buylaert, T. Khujageldiev, R. Kurbanov, J. V. Olsen, M. W. Pedersen, F. Welker

This study evaluates decontamination methods for ancient proteins, finding that a brief bleach wash effectively removes modern contamination without damaging endogenous proteins from Pleistocene specimens.

Two-million-year-old microbial communities from the Kap Kobenhavn Formation in North Greenland

A. Fernandez-Guerra, L. Wörmer, G. Borrel, T. O. Delmont, B. Elberling, M. Elvert, A. M. Eren, S. Gribaldo, A. Jochheim, R. A. Henriksen, K.-U. Hinrichs, T. S. Korneliussen, M. Krupovic, N. K. Larsen, R. Laso-Perez, , E. Willerslev

This paper reconstructs microbial communities from 2-million-year-old permafrost in Greenland, finding similarities to modern thawing permafrost microbes and suggesting microbial communities may signal climate change impacts before plants and animals.
