A disgruntled scholar recently tried to infect their instructor with what appeared the  GVV synthetically derived. Symptoms of infection include occasional random outbursts and occasionally the urge to randomly chuck bottles of condiments when things aren't going your way.  None of those symptoms are present yet in the instructor, but the instructor is nonetheless worried based on the phenotype of this very large and intimidating virus.  The instructor decides to investigate the genome of this unknown virus to confirm if they should be worried and be on the lookout for symptoms.  Which method would be most appropriate to determine the virus genome to see if it in fact is an infectious variant of GVV?     gel electrophoresis reverse genetics the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) whole genome shotgun sequencing metagenomics cloning

Viral Replication

The virus is acellular and considered non-living outside the host cell. The replication of the virus occurs only inside the living cells. Only a few genes are present in the smallest virus, whereas many genes are present in the largest virus. These genes encode specific viral proteins.
