Archaeological collagen: Why worry about collagen diagenesis? (2009, background): “If this is the case, perhaps it may shed light on claims for ‘exceptional’ preservation of collagen in fossil bones (Palmqvist et al. 2003; Asara et al. 2007).”
Freshwater bivalve (Unioniformes) diversity, systematics, and evolution: status and future directions (2008, background): “The recent announcement of determination of the collagen protein sequence from the bones of a 68-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex (Asara et al. 2007) holds some promise for inclusion of molecular characters of fossil freshwater mussels in future data sets.”
