摘要
The invention provides HSV antigen that are useful for the prevention andtreatment of HSV infection. Disclosed herein are epitopes confirmed to berecognized by T-cells derived from herpetic lesions. T-cells havingspecificity for antigens of the invention have demonstrated cytotoxic activityagainst cells loaded with virally-encoded peptide epitopes, and in many cases,against cells infected with HSV. The identification of immunogenic antigensresponsible for T-cell specificity provides improved anti-viral therapeuticand prophylactic strategies. Compositions containing antigens orpolynucleotides encoding antigens of the invention provide effectivelytargeted vaccines for prevention and treatments of HSV infection.
