A research team is studying the pathogenicity of Virus X and has identified a protein, Protein C, believed to be crucial for its virulence. To conclusively demonstrate Protein C's role in the virus's ability to cause disease, which of the following would be necessary to satisfy the third molecular Koch's postulate?
Which of the following experiments would best demonstrate a causal relationship between a specific viral gene and the severity of symptoms in infected hosts, according to molecular Koch's postulates?
A research team is investigating a toxin gene believed to contribute to the pathogenicity of a bacteria. According to molecular Koch's postulates, which approach would directly test the gene's role in causing disease?
