Ligand binding assay

ID: ligand-binding-assay

A ligand binding assay is a laboratory technique used to study the interaction between a ligand (a molecule that binds to another molecule, typically a protein) and its target, often a receptor or enzyme. These assays are crucial in drug development and pharmacology as they help to understand the binding affinity, specificity, and kinetics of ligands, which can include small molecules, peptides, or antibodies.
