Abstract
⺠We compare protein degradation in heated modern, and naturally aged Porites coral. ⺠Heating to 140 °C does not compromise the integrity of the closed-system. ⺠We use a new approach that fits relative rates to estimate temperature dependence. ⺠Protein degradation patterns change over the temperatures investigated (26-140 °C). ⺠We observe different temperature sensitivities for hydrolysis and racemization.
