Elucidation of antigenic epitopes on the rubella virus E1 glycoprotein
Rubella virus (RV), a positive-stranded RNA virus, is the only member of the genus Rubivirus within the Togaviridae family. The virus consists of a host derived lipid bilayer membrane, membrane glycoprotein spikes, and the C protein which together with viral RNA forms the icosahedral nucleocapsid. …

Characterization of an Amphipathic Alpha-Helix in the Membrane Targeting and Viral Genome Replication of Brome Mosaic Virus
Positive-strand RNA viruses associate with specific organelle membranes of host cells to establish viral replication complexes. The replication protein 1a of brome mosaic virus associates strongly with the nuclear endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes, invaginates membranes into the lumen, and …

Immunity surveillance of mumps and rubella: improved methods for the detection of virus-specific antibody
… improve laboratory methods for the detection of virus-specific antibody to mumps and rubella. The presence of virus-specific antibody is indicative of immunity to disease so simple and effective antibody detection allows for the planning and monitoring of immunisation programmes. In facilitating …
