Regulation of adenylyl cyclase 5 in striatal neurons confers the ability to detect coincident neuromodulatory signals.
Long-term potentiation and depression of synaptic activity in response to stimuli is a key factor in reinforcement learning. Strengthening of the corticostriatal synapses depends on the second messenger cAMP, whose synthesis is catalysed by the enzyme adenylyl cyclase 5 (AC5), which is itself regula...
