The only two Emacs keybindings I know are Ctrl-A and Ctrl-E for jumping to the start and end of a line respectively.  I hate to lose these in screen sessions, so I map my screen control key to Ctrl-\, as it's difficult to hit accidentally.  In my .screenrc:

  escape \034\034

-- [chromatic]

my .screenrc file:

 shell -$SHELL
 startup_message off
 defscrollback 1024

 hardstatus on
 hardstatus alwayslastline
 # show a status screen at the bottom of screen that shows the windows
 # open, the hostname of the box you are on, and the date/time
 hardstatus string "%{.bW}%-w%{.rW}%n %t%{-}%+w %=%{..G} %H %{..Y} %m/%d %C:%a "

 escape ^Za          # set escape key to CTRL-z

 autodetach on       #aut detach instead of terminating
 vbell on            #use a visual bell instead of audible
