The glucose-galactose binding protein (GGBP) has been resolved crystallographically in an OPEN and a CLOSED (and TWISTED) conformation,

enabling free energy differences to be computed between them (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0006349507713097)

Another similar protein, RBP (ribose binding protein) similarly exists in two known resolved forms (OPEN and CLOSED) whose crystal structures

exist.

I am looking for proteins of any kind that are known to have two forms resolved crystallographically, and suggestions and hints is greatly appreciated!
