Abstract
Methods and composition are provided for the cloning and expression of a Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) glycoprotein (gD) gene in single-cell host organisms. Also described are methods for culturing these novel single-cell organisms to produce the HSV-gene product. The HSV gD-related polypeptide produced by the recombinant DNA techniques described herein may be formulated for use as an immunogen in a vaccine to protect against HSV-1 and HSV-2 infection.
