Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila memory gene amnesiac (amn) has been proposed to encode a neuropeptide protein, which includes regions homologous to vertebrate pituitary adenylyl cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP; Feany and Quinn, 1995). Definitive experiments to link this gene to memory formation, however, have not yet been accomplished (Kandel and Abel, 1995). The experiments described here demonstrate that the putative amn...
