Recurrent acyclovir (ACV)-resistant (ACV-r) herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infections occurred in a patient with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, an X-linked recessive immunodeficiency syndrome composed of three clinical characteristics of immunodeficiency, thrombocytopenia, and an eczematous dermatit
## Abstract We previously isolated an acyclovir (ACV)βresistant herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSVβ1), strain TAR, from a child with WiskottβAldrich syndrome. An acyclovirβsensitive HSVβ1, strain TAS, had been isolated from the same patient before the isolation of HSVβ1 TAR. The TK protein of ACVβsen
