A ligand is the coordinational bond between an ion or a smaller molecule containing a metal ion which offers electron pairs and creates a spacial coordination with surrounding atoms. Foldit, however, doesn't have metallic atoms, so ligands aren't registered the same way. Steric comformity and polar interaction is usually of most importance for foldit's ligand puzzles.
