flag Scientists extract 2 million-year-old proteins from ancient teeth, revealing sex and genetic data.

flag Scientists extracted 2 million-year-old proteins from Paranthropus robustus teeth, identifying biological sex and genetic variability. flag Using palaeoproteomics, they confirmed sex from amelogenin proteins and found genetic differences among specimens. flag This breakthrough provides the oldest human genetic data from Africa and offers new insights into early hominin species, especially where DNA preservation is poor.
