ABSTRACT:
Compositions which are useful for treatment of individuals for Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) infections are provided, as are methods for their use. These compositions are comprised of immunogenic polypeptides which are comprised of an epitope of HSV VP16; they may also be comprised of an epitope of an HSV glycoprotein. Also provided are polypeptides which are used in the compositions for treating individuals for HSV infection, and methods and compositions used in the production of the polypeptides.
