(A) The complex formed by aspartic acid and lysine, featuring a hydrogen bond between the β-carboxyl hydrogen of aspartic acid and the lone pair of electrons on the ε-amino group of lysine. (B) The complex formed by the aspartate anion and the lysine cation, featuring hydrogen bonds between two hydrogens of the ε-amino group of lysine and the oxygens of the aspartate β-carboxylate group.
