What are other important “protein complexes” that we know of in biology? Seems like they may have relevance as an important precursor in the pathway of the evolution of life

Far too many to list here, but some interesting ones re the evolution of life might be the complexes responsible for transcription of genes and translation into proteins, such https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_polymerase_III_holoenzyme, RNA polymerase (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_polymerase), and the ribosome (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosome).
