## Abstract The labeling of total and poly(A) associated RNA from the subcellular fractions of cerebral cortex was studied after a 1‐hour ^3^H‐uridine pulse in control and trained rats. In the control animals, the fraction of newly synthesized brain cortex RNA which is found in synaptosomes is the

Abstract
Newly synthesized poly (A)‐associated mRNA was analysed in the hippocampal CA~3~ pyramidal nerve cells in rats subjected to training to reverse handedness.
The nerve cells of trained animals showed a smaller percentage of poly (A)‐associated mRNA than did the active controls. However, a specific fraction of this poly (A) hippocampal RANA with a S~E~ value of around 25 was reproducibly stimulated. This qualitative nerve cell mRNA change is discussed in relation to similar changes in the protein pattern as a function of training.

On the sample phase of the task, rats were trained to move a small black block covering a food well that could appear in one of five possible spatial locations. During the choice phas
