Abstract.We prove that a Banach space $X$ has the Radon-Nikodým property if and only if for any equivalent norm $\Vert.\Vert _2$ on $X$, there exists an equivalent norm $\Vert.\Vert _1$ with $B_{(X, \Vert.\Vert _1)} \subseteq B_{(X, \Vert.\Vert _2) } \subseteq r B_{(X, \Vert.\Vert _1)}$ for some $r > 0$, such that $B_{(X, \Vert.\Vert _1)}$ has a LUR point. A characterization of LUR point is also given.
