N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptors play important roles at developing synapses and in activity-dependent synaptic plasticity. Recent studies in Aplysia suggest that NMDA-like receptors may contribute to some forms of plasticity of sensorimotor synapses accompanying associative lear
