Fantastic discovery! Impressive scientific performance.

Thanks, helpful video.

What about the opposite mutation? Would an increase in the autophosphorylation of CaMK-2 make memories form easier?

[@mariodambra7099]

what do you mean by opposite mutation? the mutation in the video explains that a phosphorilation site knockout means that this function is lost. How do you improve the autophosphorilation? ahahah

Impressive how a video titled 'The importance of CaMKII autophosphorylation' manages to not talk about autophosphorylation.

Maybe you missed: "Normal function can also work independently...." at 2.21

Calcium isn't a molecule
