Although ___ is essential for LTP to become established,the maintenance of LTP appears to be dependent on ___.
A)CaMKII,protein kinase M zeta
B)AMPA,ampakine
C)Amygdalin,protein kinase M beta
D)ampakine,CaMKII

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

CaMKII is essential for the establishment of LTP, but the maintenance of LTP appears to be dependent on protein kinase M zeta (PKMζ). Therefore, option A (CaMKII, PKMζ) is the correct answer. Option B (AMPA, ampakine) is incorrect as AMPA receptors are involved in LTP, but they do not play a role in the maintenance of LTP. Option C (Amygdalin, protein kinase M beta) is incorrect as there is no evidence to support these factors being involved in LTP. Option D (ampakine, CaMKII) is also incorrect as CaMKII is necessary for the establishment of LTP, but the maintenance of LTP requires PKMζ.
