Abstract excerpt

Two experimental approaches--the cellular and the neurogenetic--to the study of molecular mechanisms of elementary memory implicate the cyclic AMP cascade in general, and adenylate cyclase in particular, in the processes of acquisition and short-term memory. Models of learning and memory should a...
