Calcineurin B homologous protein 1 from rat was expressed in E. coli, purified and crystallized. A full set of X-ray diffraction data has been collected to 2.2 Å resolution using a synchrotron-radiation source. Calcineurin B homologous protein 1 (CHP1), also known as p22, is a calcium-binding protein that plays a role in membrane trafficking and binds to multiple effector proteins, including Na{sup +}/H{sup +} exchangers, serine/threonine protein kinase and calcineurin, potentially modulating their function. CHP1 has been crystallized at 277 K using polyethylene glycol as a precipitant. The crystal belongs to space group P2{sub 1}, with unit-cell parameters a = 55.5, b = 38.5, c = 90.0 Å, β = 90.7°. A full set of diffraction data was collected to 2.2 Å resolution at 100 K using the Photon Factory synchrotron-radiation source.
