Dopamine signaling negatively regulates striatal phosphorylation of Cdk5 at tyrosine 15 in mice.

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Striatal functions depend on the activity balance between the dopamine and glutamate neurotransmissions. Glutamate inputs activate cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), which inhibits postsynaptic dopamine signaling by phosphorylating DARPP-32 (dopamine- and
