A Role for the Superior Colliculus in Decision Criteria.

abstract：:GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain, binds to GABAA receptors, which form chloride ion channels. The predicted structure of the GABAA receptor places a consensus phosphorylation site for cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) on an intracellular domain of the channel. Phosphorylation by var...
