There are many examples where "cross-seeding" with homologous proteins has worked, both in classical and recent work. You should add seed-stocks from any crystals with significant homology to your routine screening experiments in the first place.
The important thing is to use random screens at first. This has the effect of giving you new leads and also optimizing the ones that you have (plus you can control the number of crystals per drop).
The excellent review by Stura and co covers most of the theoretical points. (1999). Epitaxial jumps. J. crystal growth, 196(2), 250-260.
For practical details see the original paper by D'Arcy (Acta Cryst D: 63.4 (2007): 550-554) and also our paper "Random microseeding: a theoretical and practical exploration .... " Crystal Growth & Design 11.8 (2011): 3432-3441.
Acoot, this is also the approach to use with your "cubic" crystals. Don't think about it too much, just try it!
The only thing that I can't explain is why this random seeding method, including cross-seeding, is not more well-known.
Hope it works
