Abstract excerpt
Gene targeting has contributed substantially to the investigation of the neurobiological basis of mammalian learning and memory (L&M). These experiments start with an hypothesis as to a mechanism underlying L&M, then genes of interest are manipulated, and the impact on neuronal physiology and L&M is studied. Previous gene targeting studies have focussed mainly on the role of synaptic plasticity in L&M. Some of...
