Summary
Herpes simplex virus type 2 proteins extracted from infected cells and analysed by crossed immunoelectrophoresis identified a nonglycosylated antigen named Ag-5. The antigen contained two proteins when extracted from the agarose gel and the molecular weights were 128K and 91K. Both proteins are located in the nucleus of the infected cells and the 128K is identical to ICP-8. The 91K protein is based on the reactivity with monoclonal antibodies most likely the alkaline exonuclease mapped byPreston andCordingly (25). Our data show that although the proteins ICP-8 and 91 K coprecipitate they differ in both peptide compostion and in immunological specificity.
