Skoulakis E M, Davis R L
Abstract excerpt
Studies of Drosophila and other insects have indicated an essential role for the mushroom bodies in learning and memory. The leonardo gene encodes a Drosophila protein highly homologous to the vertebrate 14-3-3zeta isoform, a protein well studied for biochemical roles but without a well establish...
