The GlycoEggshell project investigates the role of glycoproteins in bird eggshells to understand their formation and evolutionary significance. By analyzing modern and ancient samples, it aims to uncover the biochemical interactions that contribute to eggshell durability and development.
Bird eggshell is a remarkable specimen for proteins analysis in archaeology and palaeontology as it can be used to understand how biominerals form and how they survive into deep time and elucidate phylogeny of the extinct birds.
Proteins are known to survive best in association with minerals and proteins can persist in >6 million years old eggshell.
Protective shell of eggs serves a crucial role for birds terrestrial adaptation as eggshell provides physical barrier to protect embryo, prevents de…
