Recombinant human cyclophilin has been co‐crystallised with a number of peptides to give crystals suitable for X‐ray analysis. The crystal complexes for which heavy‐atom derivatives have been prepared and X‐ray data collected are: cyclophilin with N ‐acetyl‐Ala‐Ala‐Pro‐Ala‐amidomethylcoumarin (I) which crystallises in space group P2 1 2 1 2 1 with a = 108.2, b = 123.0, c = 35.8 Å, and cyclophilin with cyclosporin (II) which crystallises as tetragonal plates in space group P4 1 2 1 2 or P4 3 2 1 2 with a = b = 94.98, c = 278.55 Å.
