title: Analysis of rubella virus complement-fixing antigens by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
abstract: The complement fixing antigens of rubella virus have been found to contain virion envelope but little nucleocapsid polypeptides. They are also shown to be associated with two additional polypeptides of host origin. Evidence is presented to suggest that the complement fixing antigens are structural components of the plasma membrane of virus infected cells.
