Abstract
Various embodiments of methods for analyzing proximity binding assay (PBA) data are disclosed. Proximity binding assays as a class of analyses offer the advantages of the sensitivity and specificity of biorecognition binding, along with the exponential signal amplification offered by a variety of oligonucleotide amplification reactions, such as the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). However, as various proximity binding assays have reaction kinetics governed by an additional step of the binding of a biorecognition probe (BRP) with a target molecule, there is a need for methods for the analysis of PBA data that are particularly suited to the unique characteristics of such data.
