Myelin Membrane Assembly Is Driven by a Phase Transition of Myelin Basic Proteins Into a Cohesive Protein Meshwork

Myelin basic protein undergoes a phase transition from a cytoplasmic soluble pool into a cohesive functional amyloid-like assembly; this may be one mechanism of myelin membrane biogenesis.
