There's always talk circulating within the internal communications of the Greens that they'd love to court union support if given the opportunity. There's also the TUSC option available so I imagine it'll be pretty easy for Unite to hitch their trailer to another waggon if push came to shove.
The main ones are Unison, Unite, GMB and the CWU. There's also the likes of BECTU, USDAW and the NUM. The PCS has been politically neutral for as I can remember.
TUSC is heavily supported by the RMT and I'm sure Bob Crow had something to do with it's creation.
