Identification of the AFD neuron as the site of action of the CREB protein in Caenorhabditis elegans thermotaxis.

EMBO reports - 8 Jul 2011

Abstract excerpt

Behaviour is a consequence of computation in neural circuits composed of massive synaptic connections among sensory neurons and interneurons. The cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) responsible for learning and memory is expressed in almost all neurons. Nevertheless, we find that the Caenorhabditis elegans CREB orthologue, CRH-1, is only required in the single bilateral thermosensory neuron AFD,...
