Noonan
Syndrome: What Physicians Need to Know
Protein That Enhances Long-term Memory By Controlling Rest Intervals Identified To understand how this change impedes long-term memory, Zhong's team engineered these mutations into a gene in fruit flies called corkscrew that is the functional equivalent of PTP11 in humans. The mutant flies were taught to avoid certain odors via a training regimen of repeated learning sessions broken up by resting intervals lasting 15 minutes. But this training regimen, which induces long-term memory in normal flies, failed to work in the mutants because the increased activity of SHP-2 phosphatase disturbed the spacing effect."
