Cacna1b alternative splicing is linked to associative learning

Simrat Kaur Dhillon, Ava Cardarelli, Ashton Brennecke, Aaron B. Bradford, Alexandra Bunda, Forest MacKenzie, Vladimir Tkachev, Colin Call, Arturo Andrade

This study shows that alternative splicing of exon 18a in Cacna1b affects associative learning in mice, with +18a variants reducing freezing behavior and Δ18a variants increasing it, while having no effect on other behaviors.
