Molecule Role Protective antigen
Molecule Role Annotation Protection against a lethal intraperitoneal challenge of HSV-1 (5 x 10(4) pfu) with gC or gE (US8) plasmid vaccination could be demonstrated if the inoculating dose of DNA was 250 microg. All mice immunized with vaccinia recombinants expressing either gC or gE survived HSV-1 challenge (Nass et al., 1998).
Additional Molecule Role Virmugen
Additional Molecule Role Annotation An HSV-1 gE (Us8) deletion strain, NS-gEnull, was used as a live attenuated vaccine. After HSV-1 challenge, latent virus was recovered by DRG explant cocultures from <10% of vaccinated mice compared with 100% of mock-vaccinated mice (Brittle et al., 2008).
