Actually no -- well-characterized is good, but well-known is
unnecessary.
I have a receiver domain that expresses at >100mg/L and forms
crystals right out of most screens that diffract to atomic/
subatomic resolution, but it's still being functionally
characterized and the system it's a part of is of limited interest
outside of a specific field of microbiology. Experimentally,
though, I can't imagine an easier protein to work with.

Hi all,
I'd like to pick the collective brain of crystallographers on this
list -- what are some of the most easily crystallizable proteins?
I'm especially interested in those that over-express and diffract
well, and in ones that might be less well-known than, say,
lysozyme (but nearly as nice).
