DNA methylation adjusts the specificity of memories depending on the learning context and promotes relearning in honeybees
The activity of the epigenetic writers DNA methyltransferases (Dnmts) after olfactory reward conditioning is important for both stimulus-specific long-term memory (LTM) formation and extinction. It, however, remains unknown which components of memory formation Dnmts regulate (e.g. associative vs. no...
