Ligand: organic molecule with molecular weight typically less than 600 Da. A molecule that binds to another molecule; used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, eg, an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. To summarise two definitions: Ligand: A small organic molecule with molecular weight typically less than 600 Da that binds specifically to a larger molecule. |
