Multiple Choice
You have isolated the genome from a novel virus and would like to determine its composition.You have three tubes,each containing one of these substances: 1. a protein that degrades dsDNA (DNase,tube 1)
2) a protein that degrades ssRNA (RNase,tube 2)
3) a protease that degrades viral proteins (tube 3)
You add some of your novel genome to tubes 1,2,and 3.The genome is degraded in tube 2,but not in tube 1 or tube 3.Based on your knowledge of genome types that have been found in viruses,what could the genome's composition be?
