Functional narrative    

Myelin basic protein (MBP) has a role in formation and stabilization of bilayers in the central and peripheral nervous system. MBP self associates as a homodimer on the cytoplasmic side of myelin. According to the CD spectra, lipid-free protein is mainly disordered with small amounts of alpha-helix and beta-sheet. The addition of lipid induces stabilization with secondary structure formation. There is an increase in alpha-helix and beta-sheet upon transition from a polar to an apolar environment.
