Proteins can distinguish various metal ions. Recently, we succeeded in X-ray crystallographic analysis of the halophilic $$beta$$-Lactamase (HaBLA) derived from ${it Chromohalobacter}$ sp.560 under the existence of Cs+ and Sr2+. Diffraction data at 2.0 ${AA}$ resolution (space group P31, Unit cell a = b =115.9 ${AA}$, c =67.9 ${AA}$, Rmerge 9.6%) was collected. Three Cs$$^{+}$$ and six Sr$$^{2+}$$ metal ion binding sites of HaBLA molecules in the asymmetric unit were identified. This structural information is very useful to create the artificial Cs$$^{+}$$ or Sr$$^{2+}$$ binding site on the protein molecules.
