Genealogical correspondence of a forebrain centre implies an executive brain in the protostome–deuterostome bilaterian ancestor
23 Nov 2015
Abstract excerpt
Orthologous genes involved in the formation of proteins associated with memory acquisition are similarly expressed in forebrain centres that exhibit similar cognitive properties. These proteins include cAMP-dependent protein kinase A catalytic subunit (PKA-Cα) and phosphorylated Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (pCaMKII), both required for long-term memory formation which is enriched in rodent...
