โœฆ Synopsis

This is the second honorary issue of Chirality that is dedicated to a winner of the ''Chirality Medal.'' This issue is dedicated to Kurt Mislow of Princeton University. His seminal and thought provoking contributions to stereochemistry have affected the very way we think about the field. His scientific work is well known to those even remotely associated with the stereochemical sciences. Indeed, much of our understanding of chirality and its associated nomenclature can be traced back to the work of Kurt Mislow.

The guest editor of this issue is Jay S. Siegel of the University of California-San Diego. The special honorary issues would be impossible to put together without the efforts of dedicated guest editors. The entire editorial staff of Chirality would like to thank Jay for his work. We hope you enjoy the wide variety of topics presented in this issue.

## An examination of x-ray structures of single-cluster [4Fe-4S] proteins in the Protein Data Bank has revealed that all redox proteins and the glutamine 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate amidotransferase from Bacillus subtilis have a topological configuration arbitrarily designated as D, whereas th
