Another potential solution is being explored by Dr. Allan Goldstein at George Washington University. Goldstein has found that it is possible to use a protein from the core of the AIDS virus to immunize laboratory animals.

The scientists analyzed the samples by mixing them with restriction enzymes, proteins that cut strands of DNA at specific sites. After comparing the resulting fragments, the scientists used a computer to analyze the differences between the mtDNA samples and construct a "family" tree. Those differences were so small that they could be explained by assuming the existence of one ancestral mtDNA...

Allan Hendrickse, one of Botha's two nonwhite Cabinet ministers, led a group of 30 | protesters to whites-only King's Beach for a chilly ten-minute "splashabout" in defiance of the law.
