DATALOAD: a user-friendly program to prepare binding data for the "LIGAND" software.
This paper presents a program for the preparation of binding data to be used with the LIGAND software. This program will analyze saturation and competition/displacement binding data, and prepare all the necessary files that provide the input values for the final processing by the LIGAND package. Features include choices of different units for specific activity of the labeled tracer, and screen editing of the data, and results are provided as an average of replicates or as individual points. The program creates a graphic file to observe the raw data as a B/T vs T graph, prior to the analysis with the LIGAND program. The program saves all the information in a session file. Calculation of the bound/free values for the raw data is also provided.
