Target Information

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) belongs to the Herpesviridae family and includes two types: HSV-1 and HSV-2 (also known as Human herpes virus 1 and 2, HHV-1 and HHV-2).

• HSV-1: typically causes oral lesions (cold sores)
• HSV-2: primarily responsible for genital herpes

HSV can spread through viral shedding from infected individuals. The virion contains a large double-stranded linear DNA genome within a capsid and viral envelope. HSV strains have over 70 open reading frames (ORFs) and have been associated with Alzheimer’s disease.
