In the brain, cytoplasmic polyadenylation is active during learning and could play a role in long-term potentiation, which is the strengthening of the signal transmission from a nerve cell to another in response to nerve impulses and is important for learning and memory formation.
No cerebro a poliadenilación citoplasmática é activa durante a aprendizaxe e podería xogar un papel na potenciación a longo prazo, que é o fortalecemento da transmisión do sinal dunha neurona a outra en resposta aos impulsos nerviosos e é importante para a aprendizaxe e formación da memoria.
