The resolved location of Ötzi's mtDNA within haplogroup K
Persistence and decay of the intestinal microbiota's DNA in glacier mummies from the Alps
Fine characterization of the Iceman's mtDNA haplogroup
Starting from specimens of the intestinal contents of the so-called Tyrolean Iceman or Otzi (5,350-5,100 years before present), it was possible by polymerase chain reaction to amplify fragments of the human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region that correspond to the sequence found in 1994 at the Munich and Oxford laboratories and which had been attributed to the original DNA of the mummy. The particularly favorable condition of the specimens,…
DNA decay rate in papyri and human remains from Egyptian archaeological sites
The writing sheets made with strips from the stem (caulis) of papyri ( Cyperus papyrus ) are one of the most ingenious products of ancient technology. We extracted DNA from samples of modern papyri varying in age from 0–100 years BP and from ancient specimens from Egypt, with an age‐span from 1,300–3,200 years BP. The copy number of the plant chloroplast DNA in the sheets was determined using a competitive PCR system designed on the basis of a sh…
Analysis of bacterial DNA in skin and muscle of the Tyrolean iceman offers new insight into the mummification process
About 80 sequences (16s ribosomal RNA gene) of bacterial DNA in samples of skin and muscle taken directly from the Tyrolean iceman (3350-3100 years B.C.) or recovered during the 1992 archaeological expedition at the Alpine site were analyzed to obtain clues to the natural mummification process that allowed the corpse of the Neolithic shepherd/hunter to be preserved for more than 5,000 years. The investigation was made more complex by the fact tha…
Sequence analysis of bacterial DNA in the colon of an Andean mummy
We have isolated DNA from 14 tissue samples from the internal organs of an Andean human mummy (10th-11th century A.D.) and have checked the persistence of the original human and bacterial templates using the following main approaches: 1) amino acid racemization test; 2) quantification of mitochondrial DNA copy number; 3) survey of bacterial DNA in the different organs; 4) sequence analysis of bacterial amplicons of different lengths. The results …
