    Notes: Abstract. Proteins of the transferrin family play a key role in iron homeostasis through their extremely strong binding of iron, as Fe3+. They are nevertheless able to bind a surprisingly wide variety of other metal ions. To investigate how metal ions of different size, charge and coordination characteristics are accommodated, we have determined the crystal structure of human lactoferrin (Lf) complexed with Ce4+. The structure, refined at 2.2 Å resolution (R=20.2%, R free=25.7%) shows that the two Ce4+ ions occupy essentially the same positions as do Fe3+, and that the overall protein structure is unchanged; the same closed structure is formed for Ce2Lf as for Fe2Lf. The larger metal ion is accommodated by small shifts in the protein ligands, made possible by the presence of water molecules adjacent to each binding site. The two Ce4+ sites are equally occupied, indicating that the known difference in the pH-dependent release of Ce4+ arises from a specific protonation event, possibly of the His ligand in one of the binding sites. Comparing the effects of binding Ce4+ with those for the binding of other metal ions, we conclude that the ability of transferrins to accommodate metal ions other than Fe3+ depends on an interplay of charge, size, coordination and geometrical preferences of the bound metal ion. However, it is the ability to accept the six-coordinate, approximately octahedral, site provided by the protein that is of greatest importance.

    Notes: Methylmalonyl-CoA epimerase (MMCE) is an enzyme that interconverts the R and S epimers of methylmalonyl-CoA in the pathway that links propionyl-CoA with succinyl-CoA. This is used for both biosynthetic and degradative processes, including the breakdown of odd-numbered fatty acids and some amino acids. The enzyme has been expressed in Escherichia coli both as the native enzyme and as its selenomethionine (SeMet) derivative. Crystals of both forms have been obtained by vapour diffusion using monomethylether PEG 2000 as precipitant. The native MMCE crystals are orthorhombic, with unit-cell parameters a = 56.0, b = 114.0, c = 156.0 Å, and the SeMet-MMCE crystals are monoclinic, with unit-cell parameters a = 43.6, b = 78.6, c = 89.4 Å, β = 92.0°; both diffract to better than 2.8 Å resolution.

    Notes: Human bile-salt dependent lipase (BSDL), secreted into both the digestive tract and human milk, is integral to the effective absorption of dietary lipids. In attempts to obtain crystals suitable for high-resolution X-ray crystallographic studies, various forms of the enzyme have been crystallized, including native and desialidated human milk BSDL and both intact recombinant BSDL and a truncated form lacking the heavily glycosylated C-terminal repeat region. Trigonal crystals of native BSDL, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 90.0, c = 156.1 Å, were obtained using 15–20%(w/v) PEG 8000 as precipitant. These crystals diffract to 3.5 Å along the unique axis, but to only 5–7 Å in orthogonal directions. Crystals of recombinant truncated BSDL grown from 15–20%(w/v) PEG 6000 are orthorhombic, space group P212121, with unit-cell parameters a = 59.2, b = 90.0, c = 107.7 Å, and diffract to 2.6 Å resolution. These are suitable for structural analysis by X-ray crystallography.

    Notes: A variety of human haemoglobins (Hbs) are produced at different stages of human development, including three embryonic Hbs, foetal Hb and adult Hb. All are heterotetramers. During crystallization experiments on human embryonic Hb Portland (ζ2γ2), it was discovered by crystallographic and biochemical analysis that the homotetramer Hb Bart's (γ4) preferentially crystallizes from ζ2γ2 solutions below pH 5. This results from dissociation of Hb Portland into γ2 dimers and ζ monomers and has interesting implications for subunit interactions and tetramer stability in Hbs. It also makes possible a full crystallographic analysis of Hb Bart's, which is of considerable medical significance because of its presence in the red blood cells of millions of people worldwide who suffer from α-thalassaemia.

    Notes: Mesoplodon perrini, a new species of beaked whale is described on the basis of five animals stranded on the coast of California (between 32°55′N, 117°15′W and 36°37′N, 121°55′W) from May 1975 to September 1997. Four of these animals were initially identified as Hector's beaked whales M. hectori based on cranial morphology (Mead 1981). A fifth specimen was initially identified as a neonate Cuvier's beaked whale Ziphius cavirostris based on external features. These specimens were first recognized as representatives of an undescribed species through phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial (mt) DNA control region and cytochrome b sequence data. Although similar morphologically, the genetic data do not support a close evolutionary relationship between M. perrini and M. hectori. Instead, these data suggest a possible sister species relationship with the lesser beaked whale M. peruvianus. Sightings of two small beaked whales off California in the 1970s which were tentatively identified as M. hectori are also likely to be M. perrini. We suggest that M. hectori is confined to the Southern Hemisphere, while M. perrini is known to date only from the North Pacific.

    Notes: Mesoplodon traversii (Gray, 1874) is shown to be a senior synonym of the recently described beaked whale Mesoplodon hahamondi Reyes et al., 1995 on the basis of a phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial DNA control region sequences. The mandible and teeth of M. traversii, first reported in 1873 by Hector as Dolichodon layardii. are redescribed. The species can be distinguished by features of the calvaria; including the large jugal, broad rostrum, and small distance between premaxillary foramina. The male teeth, which are large and spade-shaped with a strong terminal denticle, are also diagnostic. M. traversii is known only from Pitt Island and White Island, New Zealand and Robinson Crusoe Island, Juan Fernandez Archipelago, Chile.
