Abstract
The stoichiometry of palmitoyllysophosphatidylcholine/myelin basic protein (PLPC/MBP) complexes, the location of the protein in the lysolipid micelles, and the conformational changes occurring in the basic protein and peptides derived from it upon interaction with lysolecithin micelles were investigated by circular dichroic spectropolarimetry, ultracentrifugation, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and 31P, 13C, and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), and electron magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), and electron microscopy. Ultracentrifugation measurements indicated that well-defined complexes were formed by the association of one protein molecule with approximately 141 lysolipid molecules. Small-angle X-ray scattering data indicated that the PLPC/MBP complexes form particles with a radius of gyration of 3.8 nm. EPR spectral parameters of the spin labels 5-, and 16-doxylstearate incorporated into lysolecithin/basic protein aggregates, and 13C- and 1H-NMR relaxation times of PLPC indicated that the addition of the protein did not affect the environment and location of the labels and the organization of the lysolipid micelles. The data suggested that MBP lies primarily near the surface of the micelles, with segments penetrating beyond the interfacial region into the hydrophobic interior, but without any part of the protein being protected against rapid exchange of its amide groups with the aqueous environment. The basic protein acquired about 20% alpha-helix when bound to lysolipid micelles. Circular dichroic spectra of sequential peptides derived by cleavage of the protein revealed the formation of alpha-helical regions in the association with lysolecithin. Specific residues in myelin basic protein that participated in binding to the micelles were identified from magnetic resonance data on changes in the chemical shifts and intensities of assigned resonances, and line broadening of peaks by fatty acid spin-labels incorporated into the micelles.

Abstract
Consideration of the evidence presented in this review leads to the following conclusions: (a) Isolated MBP in aqueous solution has little ordered secondary or tertiary structure. (b) In this state, the protein can associate with a wide range of hydrophobic and amphiphilic compounds, these interactions involving limited sections of the protein. (c) The strength of binding to bilayers and the accompanying conformational changes in the protein are greatest for systems containing acidic lipids, presumably because of the involvement of ionic interactions. (d) When bound to bilayers of acidic lipids, MBP will have substantially more ordered secondary structure than it manifests in aqueous solution, and it is likely to be oligomeric (possibly hexameric). (e) MBP does affect the organization of lipid aggregates. It influences strongly the separation of bilayers in multilayers of purified lipids, and at present this must be viewed as its prime role within myelin. The greatest impediment to our understanding of MBP is the lack of an assayable biological activity. In contrast to the situation with enzymes, for example, we have no functional test for changes in protein structure or changes accompanying interactions with other molecules. Current evidence suggests that the protein has a structural role within myelin and that its own three-dimensional structure is strongly dependent on the molecules with which it is associated. If this picture is correct, studies of the isolated protein or of the protein in reconstituted lipid systems may yield, at best, a rough guide to the structure within its biological environment. Further clarification of the structure and function of MBP may have to await development of more powerful techniques for studying proteins bound to large molecular aggregates, such as lipid bilayers. The paucity of generally applicable methods is reflected in the fact that even low resolution structures are known for only a handful of intrinsic membrane proteins, and even more limited information exists for proteins associated with membrane surfaces. However, the increasing use of a combination of electron microscopy and diffraction on two-dimensional arrays of proteins formed on lipid bilayers (Henderson et al., 1990) offers the hope that it may not be too long before it will be possible to study at moderate resolution the three-dimensional structure of MBP bound to a lipid membrane.

Abstract
The interactions of phosphatidylcholine (PC) to regions of the myelin basic protein (MBP) was examined. In solid phase binding assays the nature of the binding of unilamellar vesicles of 14C-labeled phosphatidylcholine to bovine 18.5 kDa MBP, its N- and C-terminal peptide fragments, photooxidized 18.5 kDa MBP and the mouse 14 kDa protein, with an internal deletion of residues 117-157, was studied. The data were analyzed by computer-generated Scatchard plots in which non-specific binding was eliminated. Non-cooperative, low affinity binding of PC vesicles to MBP was observed, and this binding found to be sensitive to pH and ionic changes. At an ionic strength of 0.1 and pH 7.4, the binding of PC to the 14 kDa mouse MBP exhibited a Kd similar to that obtained with both the N-terminal and photooxidized 18.5 kDa bovine MBP. The studies indicated that the sites of PC interaction with MBP are located in the N-terminal region of the protein. The C-terminal region appeared to modulate the strength of the interaction slightly. Under similar conditions, lysozyme did not bind PC liposomes, and histone bound them nonspecifically.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the myelin basic protein (MBP) were produced in CAF1 (BALB/c x A/J) mice immunized with intact bovine MBP. A number of MAbs were obtained, one of which was characterized in detail with respect to its isotype, antigenic determinant on the MBP, the spectrum of antigens with which it reacted in mouse brain, and its immunohistochemical staining characteristics. This monoclonal, GB-1 (an IgG1), recognized an epitope within residues 30-51 of bovine MBP. It also reacted with a family of MBP-related proteins present in brain homogenates of mice from 7-35 days. Immunohistochemically, GB-1 stained myelinated fibers and oligodendrocytes in the rodent CNS. A second monoclonal (GB-2, and IgM) was partially characterized. It reacted with intact MBP when it was immobilized to plastic or nitrocellulose, but it was not found to be useful for immunoblots or immunohistochemistry.

Abstract
Chromatographic studies were performed to measure myelin basic protein (MBP) interactions by covalently binding a number of different proteins to Sepharose and passing radioactive bovine MBP over these columns. Studies at a variety of pH values, ionic strengths and temperatures revealed that the bovine MBP could interact with itself as well as cytochrome c, lysozyme, and ovalbumin. Chromatographic profiles of elution volume vs. pH revealed that the interaction between MBP and these immobilized proteins was biphasic. The self-association of MBP was found to be strongest between pH 7.4 and 8.1 and at an elevated temperature. Titration of the amino acid residues responsible for the association of MBP with other proteins revealed apparent pKs ranging from 6.10 to 6.70. A pH dependence study at an elevated temperature shifted the apparent pK of the MBP interaction to a lower value with all the proteins except ovalbumin. After destroying 60% of the histidine residues in MBP by photooxidation and passing 125I-labeled photooxidized MBP over Sepharose columns containing immobilized protein, the second phase in binding was decreased significantly with immobilized cytochrome c, lysozyme, and MBP and to a smaller extent with ovalbumin. These results are consistent with the involvement of deprotonated histidine residues in the MBP-protein associations.

Abstract
The detailed interaction of human myelin basic protein (MBP) with charged lipids may be critical in organizing the myelin sheath into its biologically functional structure. Carbon-13 and phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been used to study this interaction by examining spectral consequences of additions of MBP to membrane preparations of the negatively charged lipid phosphatidylglycerol (PG). Lipid head group 13C and 31P linewidths were found to narrow upon addition of protein, while concomitant broadening was noted for bilayer carbon resonances. At intermediate MBP/PG ratios, two components in slow exchange on the NMR time scale (bulk PG and a protein-induced PG domain) were observed for the 13C resonance of the head group carbon atom adjacent to phosphate. These results, and other spectral evidence, suggested that head groups in free PG vesicles are motionally restricted by intermolecular interactions which are disrupted by competition with MBP Lys and Arg positively charged side chains. Titration of PG with the homopolypeptide poly-L-lysine produced comparable effects on PG 13C head group spectra, indicating that electrostatic attractions constitute the primary basis of the observed interactions. Vicinal and/or geminal 13C-31P coupling constants measured from the spectra of PG head group carbons were found to be essentially invariant for free PG in dimethyl sulfoxide solution, free PG vesicles, PG vesicles + MBP, and PG vesicles + poly-L-lysine. Comparison of the spectral effects induced in PG head group resonances by normal vs multiple sclerosis-derived MBP (MS-MBP) indicated that the MS-MBP is relatively less effective in converting PG to the protein-induced domain, a result which was attributed to increased protein self-aggregation arising from the reduced net positive character of the MS protein samples.

Abstract
The interactions of sodium dodecyl sulfate with a number of proteins were examined at a variety of pH values ranging from 4.8 to 11.6. The dodecyl sulfate-induced precipitation of some of these proteins was observed within a relatively limited range of total dodecyl sulfate concentration. Most of the basic proteins precipitated at low pH but as the isoelectric point of the protein was approached the amount of protein that precipitated decreased. Bovine myelin basic protein was unique in that it precipitated at all pH values examined both above and below its isoelectric point. Thus, the dodecyl sulfate-induced precipitation of myelin basic protein appears to be different from the dodecyl sulfate-induced precipitation of most proteins. A comparison of protein precipitation at equivalent dodecyl sulfate:protein molar or weight ratios revealed very little difference in the precipitation behavior of the proteins studied. When the bovine myelin basic protein was cleaved at its single tryptophan residue, the N-terminal fragment (1-115) formed insoluble dodecyl sulfate complexes at pH values ranging from 4.8 to 9.2. The C-terminal fragment (116-169) precipitated almost completely at pH 4.8 but to a lesser extent at pH 7.4 and 9.2. Equimolar mixtures of the N- and C-terminal fragments precipitated in the presence of dodecyl sulfate at pH 7.4 and 9.2 to an extent greater than the C-terminal fragment alone but comparable to the N-terminal fragment alone or the whole basic protein. These results suggest: that the mechanism by which dodecyl sulfate induces the precipitation of myelin basic protein may be unique compared to other proteins and that the intact myelin basic protein is not necessary for its precipitation by dodecyl sulfate.

Abstract
Human fetal spinal cord poly A (+) mRNA was found to direct the synthesis of three major myelin basic protein (MBP) variants with molecular weights of 17K, 18.5K, and 21.5K when translated in reticulocyte lysates. In order to investigate the structural relationships between these MBP variants and their corresponding mouse variants, human fetal spinal cord and mouse brain cDNA libraries were constructed and screened for MBP cDNAs. A number of MBP cDNA clones were isolated and characterized. One of these, PP535 contained the entire coding region of the mouse 14K MBP; and another mouse cDNA clone, PP1.85, was almost full-length and coded for either the 21.5K MBP or the 18.5K MBP. A human clone (KK36), 1,173 nucleotides in length, contained the entire coding region of an MBP variant with a molecular weight of 17,342. The structure of this clone within its coding region is significantly different from the corresponding mouse 17K MBP cDNA. It is missing two sequences found in the mouse 17K MBP cDNA (exons 2 and 5); and it contains a sequence (exon 6) that is missing from the mouse 17K MBP cDNA. Thus, this human 17.3K cDNA codes for a "17K" human MBP variant that is quite different from the corresponding mouse variant and is identical to the human 18.5K MBP except for a deletion of a peptide consisting of 11 amino acids that includes the single tryptophan residue of the 18.5K MBP. An analysis of the structure of this 17.3K human MBP cDNA suggests that the major pathway for splicing the primary human MBP gene product may be different from that in the mouse.

Abstract
Some acidic lipids including sulfatide and phosphatidylinositol were found to increase greatly the rate of cathepsin D cleavage of the myelin basic protein. Since a similar effect was seen when the substrate was changed to cytochrome C, but not when the enzyme was changed to pepsin, these acidic lipids seem to be acting on cathepsin D rather than on myelin basic protein itself. Even so, chemical modification studies suggest that this phenomenon is only seen when the myelin basic protein is in its native conformation. Succinylation of MBP increases its rate of cleavage by cathepsin D by at least tenfold and, in addition, with this modified and presumably denatured MBP as substrate, activation of cathepsin D is no longer seen with acidic lipids. These findings suggest that the native conformation of MBP is both an important determinant of its rate of cleavage by cathepsin D and is also essential for observing activation of this reaction by acidic lipids. The acidic lipids seem to alter the "extended active site" of cathepsin D in such a way as to enable this enzyme better to utilize the native myelin basic protein as a substrate. Cathepsin D has previously been implicated as the protease responsible for the release into cerebrospinal fluid in multiple sclerosis patients of an encephalitogenic fragment derived from myelin basic protein. It is possible that the elevated levels of cathepsin D and sulfatide that have previously been found associated with multiple sclerosis plaques in vivo act in concert to bring about the rapid cleavage and subsequent loss of the myelin basic protein from these localized regions in the myelin sheath.

Abstract
The interaction of human myelin basic protein with lipophilin has been demonstrated by affinity chromatography. The interaction was specific since neither basic protein, nor albumin bound to an affinity column consisting of BP bound to agarose. Conversely an albumin affinity column failed to bind BP. The pH dependency of the interaction correlated with the known pK for histidine. By the use of large peptides formed by tryptophanyl cleavage by BNPS-skatole, peptide 1-117 bound to the BP affinity column while neither the smaller peptide, 118-170, nor the synthetic nonapeptide bound. The large fragment contains 9 of the 10 histidines in the molecule which may explain the binding of this fragment. The result of such protein-protein interactions makes available a large number of new antigenic sites and extends considerably the range of encephalitogens for disease induction.

Abstract
The binding of deoxycholate and dodecyl sulfate to the mouse and bovine myelin basic proteins and two peptide fragments, obtained by cleavage of the bovine basic protein at its single tryptophan residue, was examined. Complete equilibrium binding isotherms for both detergents were obtained by examining their binding to each of the polypeptides immobilized on agarose. The bulk of the binding of dodecyl sulfate was found to be highly cooperative, and at saturation all four polypeptides bound far more detergent than globular, water-soluble proteins. The sum of the dodecyl sulfate bound by each of the two bovine basic protein cleavage fragments was almost twice that bound by the intact protein at saturation, suggesting that cleavage of the bovine basic protein exposes sites for additional binding of dodecyl sulfate. At pH values below pH 8.0, an additional cooperative transition was observed below the critical micelle concentration of sodium dodecyl sulfate in the binding isotherms of all four polypeptides. The midpoint of this transition corresponded to an apparent pK of approximately 5.5; however, the destruction of 90% of the histidine residues in the bovine basic protein had no effect on this transition. At pH 9.2 and moderate ionic strength (I = 0.1), the bulk of the binding of deoxycholate to the mouse and bovine basic proteins occurred at and above the critical micelle concentration of the detergent; and saturation values of deoxycholate binding to these two proteins were considerably higher than that reported for globular, water-soluble proteins. In marked contrast to the results with dodecyl sulfate, neither cleavage fragment was observed to bind deoxycholate. The results suggest that the higher ordered structure of the bovine basic protein may play an important role in the binding of anionic amphiphiles to the protein.

Abstract
Although dispersions containing lipid and protein are widely used as model systems to explore the properties of biomembranes, the extent of mixing of the two components has generally not been determined. Here, the distribution of bovine myelin basic protein in dispersions with bovine brain L-alpha-diacylphosphatidylserine (PS) has been examined electronmicroscopically. Dispersions of PS were prepared by hydrating a known amount of dried lipid with buffer or with buffer containing an equal weight of myelin basic protein or lysozyme. The lipid-protein complexes were separated from unbound protein by centrifugation in 0-60% sucrose density gradients. In both systems only a few percent of the protein was unbound and the resultant recombinants, which gave single bands on the gradients, contained about 50% protein by weight. After removal of the sucrose by dialysis the dispersions were fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde and 1% osmium tetroxide, dehydrated and embedded in epoxy resin. Thin sections cut from these blocks were incubated, after removal of osmium tetroxide, with antiserum raised in rabbits against human myelin basic protein. Excess antiserum was removed and the antigen-antibody complexes on the thin sections were labelled with 13 nm diameter colloidal gold particles stabilized with protein A. The distributions of these gold particles were examined under an electronmicroscope. Comparison of the labelling patterns for PS, PS-lysozyme and PS-basic protein demonstrated specific labelling in the last, and showed the gold particles to be uniformly dispersed. It was concluded that in these dispersions the protein and lipid were intimately mixed at the molecular level.

Abstract
Self-association of basic protein has been proposed to be of functional significance in central nervous system myelin. In aqueous solution this protein self-associates, previous data being consistent with the formation of dimers, which then undergo an indefinite isodesmic self-association [Smith, R. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 1826-1831]. As this protein is membrane bound in vivo, we have now examined the effects of amphiphiles on the self-association equilibria. Contrary to the expected effects, at low molar ratios dodecyl sulfate, deoxycholate, Triton X-100, and lysophosphatidylcholine increased protein intermolecular attraction. The anionic detergents led to partial precipitation even at 1:1 protein:detergent molar ratios whereas the zwitterionic lipid and the nonionic detergent exerted less pronounced effects. Sedimentation velocity and equilibrium measurements have been used to define quantitatively the effects of lysophosphatidylcholine. The sedimentation coefficient increases up to a lipid:protein ratio of 4:1 and then remains constant up to a ratio of 12:1. The sedimentation equilibrium data suggest that the mode of protein-protein interaction is the same as in the absence of lipid but with substantially increased association constants. The dimerization constant is increased from 1.20 X 10(2) M-1 to 1.0 X 10(3) M-1 and the isodesmic association constant from 3.4 X 10(4) M-1 to 1.2 X 10(5) M-1. The effects of detergents on myelin basic protein are compared with the effects on other proteins, and the implications for the state of the protein with myelin are discussed.
