I’m using P/invoke to interoperate between C# and C++ in this project. I’d like to pass data structures that are symmetrically defined. What’s the best infrastructure to use? Could protocol buffers be useful here?

I would suggest to use C++/CLI since you can use the same header files / definition files in both worlds. One of the main goals for developing C++ CLI was to fill the gap between the managed and the unamanaged world. This article gives you even more advantages.
In the MSDN there is a nice description how C++cli works and how you can use it.
