Identification of long-lived synaptic proteins by proteomic analysis of synaptosome protein turnover [Neuroscience]

Memory formation is believed to result from changes in synapse strength and structure. While memories may persist for the lifetime of an organism, the proteins and lipids that make up synapses undergo constant turnover with lifetimes from minutes to days. The molecular basis for memory maintenance may rely on a...
