- Scientists have fabricated monolayers of pure myelin basic protein (MBP), a major protein component of myelin sheath.
- It is a protective membrane that wraps around the axon of nerve cells and acts as a model protein in studying diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS).
- MBP helps in compactification of the myelin sheath.
- The fabricated tailored monolayers can give an in-depth understanding of the role of MBP in forming multi-lamellar myelin sheath structure.
