1BGS - PubMed Abstract: 
Protein-protein recognition is fundamental to most biological processes. The information we have so far on the interfaces between proteins comes largely from several protease-inhibitor and antigen-antibody complexes. Barnase, a bacterial ribonuclease, and barstar, its natural inhibitor, form a tight complex which provides a good model for the study and design of protein-protein non-covalent interactions.
