UP —Two big scientific steps have been taken which could possibly lead to elimination of cancer, and other uncqntrolla’ble disease, and perhaps stretch the life span indefinTne steps were toward understanding of how nature makes a protein molecule. AU life walks a kind of tight wire of proteins which hre constantly being buiß in bodies and iplants and. just as constantly, be4ng torn down. In youth the building up predominates; In an, the down process has the upper hand. ,

The men who have worked to understand this ptpcess are Dr. Henry Borsook and Dr. James Bonner of the California Institute of Technology. Dr. Bonner nas specialized in determining how hormones work in initiating and contrbliing the vital chemical processes of man, animals, and plants. Dr. Borsook. Cal Tech’s professor of biochemistry, disclosed that he ad. his associates have an understanding of two of three stimulating forces in the building up process of proteins and have promising clues to the identity of the • third and how .it works. 1 The first of thg three forces, • they have found, certain amino - acids, long identified as "the build- ; Ing blocks” from which proteins at®., made. The second is) the result of the body’s chemical break-

I . >< down df carbohydrates, such as sugar, which provides the fuel for ■making protein. The third is made up of exceedingly potent substances found in blood, liver. spleen, and presumably in all other life. They also hay# evidence of y< t another substance. one which slows the making of protein in the same manner nature makes it, so protein making won't get out of hand. - The complexity of the work may •be judged by Dr. Borsook's more than 20 years of searching for the secrets of protein making. Since 1940 he had been tagging the amii|o acids with radioactive carbon and this has advanced the search in giant strides. i Dr. Borsook's explanation of - hiw a hormone worlds made much t sense to biologists and chemists.
