We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

| - | + | '''Barnase''' (BA, BActerial RiboNucleASE) is a bacterial [[ribonuclease]] synthesized and secreted by the bacterium ''Bacillus amyloliquefaciens''. <ref>PMID:8110767</ref> The inhibitor barstar (BST) binds to it very tightly and prevents it from digestion of the cell’s RNA. | |
