Abstract
The authors report that the α-subunit of the acetylcholine receptor and two membrane proteins from E. coli, as well as two proteins from K. pneumoniae, share at least one antigenic determinant, and that the α-subunit of the acetylcholine receptor and a protein in Prot. vulgaris share at least two antigenic determinants.
