...naysayers and forge ahead, is famous even among those who barely made it through high school biology for his and Francis Crick's 1953 discovery that DNA molecules arrange themselves in a double helix. That breakthrough earned them a Nobel Prize and made it possible to trace at the molecular level how cells organize hereditary information. In October, Watson drove in from the Long Island, N.Y., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, where he has worked for nearly three decades, to speak to TIME's reporters and editors. Elmer-DeWitt used the opportunity to invite Watson to write the package's closing...
...dimension. We might remember the Romans for their military might, the Renaissance for its superlative art and architecture, the Enlightenment for its philosophy. A millenium hence, the only thing for which our American century will be remembered (with the possible exception of theoretical scientific advances in atomic physics and molecular biology) is the perfecting of a nuanced, sophisticated capitalist business system that has lifted large masses of humankind, now doubled in number from a mere 50 years ago, to unprecedented heights in living standards...
Through a collaboration between the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology and the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, researchers were able to take a snapshot of a stage of the mechanism by which the enzyme reverse transcriptase (RT) works on a strand of viral DNA to make new copies...
...mutations in RT--which lead to mutations in HIV--sometimes make these drugs ineffective, said Huifang Huang, a post-doctoral fellow in the Department of Molecular and Celluar Biology who served on the research team...
Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology William M. Gelbart says his job as a soccer referee makes him a better instructor to Harvard students...
