Abstract:
The present invention relates to peptides that are derived from HSV-2 glycoprotein G2 and represent HSV-2 type-specific epitopes. The present invention also provides for compositions comprising these peptides for type-specific serological diagnosis of HSV-2 infection. Methods of using these peptides for type-specific detection of HSV-2 antibodies and differentiation of HSV-2 viral infection from HSV-1 and other herpes family viral infections are further provided.
