ABSTRACT:
The invention maps a herpes simplex labialis (HSL) susceptibility gene associated with HSL to the q11 region of chromosome 21. The invention provides methods of screening for susceptibility or resistance to herpes simplex virus, particularly herpes simplex labialis, and diagnosing herpetic diseases, such as HSL.
