P0, the major protein of peripheral nerve myelin, mediates membrane adhesion in the spiral wraps of the myelin sheath. We have determined the crystal structure of the extracellular domain from P0 (P0ex) at 1.9 A resolution. P0ex is folded like a typical immunoglobulin variable-like domain; five residues at the C-terminus are disordered, suggesting a flexible linkage to the membrane ...
