Implications of the HR39 drosophila nuclear receptor in the neuronal specificity of the mushroom bodies

Objective

Our aim is to determine responsible expression of the HR39 nuclear receptor in the long- term memory associated alphabeta neuronal population of the Drosophila Mushroom Bodies, and to understand the functional specificity of these structures. Factors involved in the HR39 specific expression and HR39 target genes will be identified.
