Abstract
MICROSOMAL membranes of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma can be separated into membrane classes of high and low density, which on the basis of enzyme, physiochemical and immunological criteria1–4 are considered to be derived from endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane, respectively. Because the membranes from the endoplasmic reticulum lack the antigens involved in the agglutination and/or immune lysis of intact Ehrlich ascites carcinoma by rabbit and horse antisera directed against microsomal membranes of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma1,2, we wished to test, by means of antibody-binding, whether there are not some antigens which the two membrane classes have in common.
