What's the Buzz about Honeybee Memory?

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: Although glutamate is known to be critical to vertebrate neuronal plasticity, its function in the insect brain is poorly understood and the NMDA receptor (NMDAR) has only recently been investigated in the honeybee. NMDARs are ligand-gated, voltage-sensitive cation channels composed of NR1 and NR2
