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., Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (© 2021 The Authors.)

We report the proteomic datasets on the mouse macrophage cell line PMJ2R infected with tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) for two and six days. Data were acquired using shotgun ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry. Peptide identifications were done using the Mascot version 2.4 (Matrix Science), and quantification was performed by a label-free approach. Protein profiles of early (two days) and late (six days) stages of infection were compared between each other and the respective control samples. Protein profiles of infected and control samples differed in the number of identified proteins and their relative abundances. Proteins detected in the TBEV-infected cells were involved in various processes related to the infection, including defense response against the virus, regulation of viral process, negative regulation of viral genome replication, RNA binding, or innate immune response. Also, proteins specific for the early and late stages of infection were identified., (© 2019 The Author(s).)
