Abstract
Several of the major structural polypeptides of herpes simplex virus were obtained in purified form by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of purified virus particle polypeptides. Antisera made by footpad inoculation of these polypeptides into rabbits were used to study the antigenic properties of two envelope glycoproteins and of the major capsid protein.
