Protein dataset of immortalized keratinocyte HaCaT cells and normal human keratinocytes

Learning of the molecular mechanisms of the pathological processes development in the normal human keratinocytes (NHK) are difficult. Immortalized keratinocytes HaCaT are often used as an analogue of NHK since they have a number of advantages over the latter - they do not require the presence of growth and differentiation factors in the medium, have unlimited potential for proliferation, demonstrate stable phenotype regardless of the number of passages [1]. Taking into account the properties and characteristics of the HaCaT line, these cells can be considered as a promising experimental model for research of various physiological processes occurring in human keratinocytes. However, to understand the limitations of such an experimental model, a detailed comparative characterization of HaCaT and NHK is required, which can be obtained by carrying out its proteomic analysis. In this article we present datasets obtained through the high-throughput shotgun proteomics analysis of normal human keratinocytes and immortalized HaCaT keratinocytes. As a protocol for proteomic profiling of cells, we used the approach of obtaining LC-MS / MS measurements followed by their processing with Progenesis LC-MS software (Nonlinear Dynamics Ltd.). The mzML files were deposited to the Mendeley Data.
