Bone protein “extractomics”: comparing the efficiency of bone protein extractions of Gallus gallus in tandem mass spectrometry, with an eye towards paleoproteomics

PeerJ, 4, e2603.

author keywords: Bone matrix proteins; Bone protein extraction protocols; Methods comparison; Paleoproteomics; Mass spectrometry; Proteomics
TL;DR: It is found that when a standardized amount of extracted proteins was analyzed, extraction steps that yielded the most protein were often not the ones that produced the greatest diversity of bone proteins, or the highest degree of protein coverage. (via Semantic Scholar)
