...dramatic odyssey lay another one that helps to explain Raffaele Minichiello's bizarre action. Raff, as his family calls him, retraced that first, formative journey for U.S. Lawyer Marvin Mitchelson, who flew to Rome to organize Minichiello's defense. As the young Marine talked in his cell in Regina Coeli prison, Attorney Mitchelson recorded parts of it in Raff's own hesitant English. TIME here presents Minichiello's troubled story...
Viral Assistance. Although the gene has long been recognized as the basic unit of heredity, it has been only 26 years since molecular biologists learned that the gene is actually composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) a complex molecule that forms the chromosomes in every living cell. The DNA molecule is shaped like a spiral staircase-a double helix connected by steps, or links. Each of the thousands of links consists of a pair of mutually attracting chemical bases. Although only four different kinds of such bases are found in DNA, they can be arranged along the helix in an enormous...
...answer such questions, a Harvard team led by Jonathan Beckwith, 33, turned to the virus, which consists simply of a single DNA molecule sheathed in a thin coating of protein. Most viruses multiply by entering a living cell, taking control of it and then ordering it to produce carbon copies of the invading virus. Eventually the cell bursts, releasing a host of new viruses. Some strains of invading viruses, however, incorporate several of the cell's genes into their own DNA molecule before they depart. There are two different viruses, the Harvard researchers knew, that invade an intestinal bacteria...
...these viruses is arranged in two, loosely linked strands, with one molecular strand containing the chemical complement of the other. These long molecules are ordinarily coiled around each other in the head of a virus particle once it leaves the host cell...
...chastity is not so much a Lysistrata tactic, it seems, as a self-disciplinary measure. "Love between a man and a woman is debilitating and counter-revolutionary," argues Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, daughter of David of the Chase Manhattan Bank and a member of Women's Liberation hard-core Cell 16 in Boston. Declares Boston's Roxanne...
