Updated project metadata. In the present study, we report proteome data of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF cells) and immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblasts which are 4-OH-TAM-inducible Gpx4−/− (Pfa1 cells). Ferroptosis in Pfa1 cells was induced with Tamoxifen (Tam) addition and three timepoints were collected: 0h, 24h and 48h. Wild-type MEF cells were also measured as an alternative control without Tam addition. Raw data for HEK293 cells are provided as an independent quality control. MEF and Pfa1 cells (both kind gift from Marcus Conrad, Munich) were cultured in RPMI-1640 media (2 g/L glucose, 10% FBS, 2 mM Gibco GlutaMAX Supplement, 1% pen/strep) at 37C with 5% CO2 in a humidified incubator. Cells (300k) were seeded on Corning 100 mm tissue-culture treated culture dishes and incubated overnight. On the next day Pfa1 cells were treated with or without 1 µM Tam.
