1. A process for producing a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of a Herpes Simplex Virus qD glycoprotein or a fragment of said amino acid sequence, wherein said fragment comprises at lest seven contiguous amino acids, said polypeptide containing at least one immunological and antigenic determinant of a Herpes Simplex Virus gD glycoprotein comprising:

  • (a) culturing a unicellular organism containing a recombinant vector comprising a DNA sequence coding for a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of a Herpes Simplex Virus gD glycoprotein or a fragment of said amino acid seqeunce, wherein said fragment comprises at least seven contiguous amino acids, said polypeptide containing at least one immunological and antigenic determinant of a Herpes Simplex Virus gD glycoprotein, and said recombinant vector capable of being replicated in said unicellular organism and said unicellular organism capable of producing said polypeptide; and

    (b) isolating said polypeptide from the culture.
