NRBF2 plays a crucial role in the acquisition process of learning and memory, independent of the Vps34 complex by Songfen Wu, Songfen Wu, Songfen Wu, Haicai Zhuang, Haicai Zhuang, Haicai Zhuang, Xidan Zhou, Kuan Li, Kuan Li, Kuan Li

“…IntroductionNRBF2, a component of autophagy-associated PIK3C3/VPS34-containing phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, plays a crucial role in learning and memory processes, yet its specific impact on memory and the underlying molecular mechanisms remains unclear.MethodsHere, we utilized NRBF2 knockout mice to examine its influence on the time course of fear memory. Employing quantitative PCR, Western blot analysis, behavioral tests, and electrophysiology, we investigated the mechanisms through which NRBF2 affects memory processing.ResultsWe observed an increase in Nrbf2 mRNA levels at 6 and 12 h, and protein levels at 6 h post fear conditioning. …”
