Spartan Virus

The Spartan Virus is an alien virus.The wanted to use the virus to wipe out the humanity. (TXF:My Struggle III) 
The Spartan Virus removes the Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) gene from your DNA. the ADA Gene and your immune system is attacked and rendered dead by the activated Spartan virus that was administered within Small pox shots. 
==Pathogenesis==
The Spartan virus uses a process called CRISPR-CAS-9 to remove the enzyme adenosine deaminase (ADA) from the DNA of the infected organism. This enzyme is responsible for converting adenosine to inosine. ADA is found in the T lymphocytes (T cells) in humans and thus plays an important role in immune reactions, i.e. the defense against pathogens. The extraterrestrial DNA contains something that attacks CAS-9 protein in human DNA.
==Treatment==
Due to Scully's blood sample by polymerase chain reaction, the scientist and Agent Einstein succeed in developing an antidote, provided the infection is not too advanced, which is administered intravenously in a solution.
