Learning mechanisms: the case for CaM-KII

Lisman, John, Malenka, Robert C., Nicoll, Roger A., Malinow, Roberto·1997·Science

Abstract

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a strengthening of synapses in the brain that is thought to underlie learning and memory. Now in this issue Barria et al. show that the persistent change is likely to be phosphorylation of the postsynaptic glutamate receptor known as the AMPA receptor. Lisman et al. in their Perspective discuss how this phosphorylation may function to cause LTP and how these results fit in with other findings in the literature.

Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
