View source for Multi-protein assemblies

Many [[PDB file|PDB files]] contain [[Complexes|complexes]] in which a particular protein is interacting with a different protein in what are called [[Multi-protein assemblies|multi-protein assemblies]] or [[Multi-protein assemblies|multi-protein complexes]]. These interactions, if biologically relevant, can be immensely insightful in shedding light on cellular and extracellular processes.


==Examples==
* [[Ribosome]]
* [[Human Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Complexed with its Receptor]]
* [[Platelet-receptor glycoprotein Ib alpha|Platelet-receptor glycoprotein Ib alpha bound to the von Willebrand Factor A1 Domain]]
