View source for TK CTA in 14-3-3 Transgenics

Test of CTA in transgenic mice that overexpress R18 peptide, which blocks the ability of [[14-3-3]] to bind other proteins. Zhou's founder Line 132.

Continued in experiment   [[TL Stronger CTA in 14-3-3 Transgenics]] and [[TM Stronger NaCl CTA in 14-3-3 Transgenics]] and [[TN Unconditioned Aversions in 14-3-3 Transgenics]].
