Label-free quantitation (LFQ) proteomics, mainly based on the extraction of the peptide (precursor) intensity at the MS1 (mass spectrum 1) level, enables to quantify the relative amount of the proteins among samples. In an LFQ proteomics study, all samples are scanned individually on an advanced mass spectrometer and the chromatographic features of each run are extracted to generate consensus patterns among various runs in the experiment. Here, we describe the LFQ proteomics experimental protocol adapted for plant research, such as plant iron homeostasis.
