Abstract The cerebral cortices of Sprague-Dawley rats contain polysomal messenger RNA (mRNA) which directs the synthesis of either one or both of two closely related microtubule-associated proteins, A and B. The similarity of these proteins and the absence of rats whose cortices lack polysomal RNA for both A and B (A− B−) are findings that are consistent with the hypothesis that the structural genes for these proteins are allelic. Rats which lack the cortical polysomal mRNA that encodes the A protein perform significantly more poorly in an escape-avoidance paradigm than do rats which possess this mRNA.
