The osm-9 mutant strain is defective in the recovery phase of long-term memory dynamics

Nikki I Ma, Fatema M. Saifuddin, N. R. Lobato, Noëlle D. L’Étoile

This study shows that OSM-9 protein is required for converting short-term memory to long-term memory in C. elegans, not for memory acquisition, and reveals memory dynamics through spaced training and food re-feeding effects.
