Cloning and characterization of genes involved in long-lasting memory

摘要

A method of regulating long-term memory is disclosed. Also disclosed is isolated DNA encoding a cyclic 3', 5'-adenosine monophosphate responsive transcriptional activator, isolated DNA encoding a' antagonist of cyclic 3', 5'-adenosine monophosphate-inducible transcription, isolated DNA encoding an enhancer-specific activator, and isolated DNA encoding a nitric oxide synthase. A method for assessing the effect of a drug on long-term memory formation is also disclosed.
