Term Information

Accession
GO:0048167
Name
regulation of synaptic plasticity
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
None
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
A process that modulates synaptic plasticity, the ability of synapses to change as circumstances require. They may alter function, such as increasing or decreasing their sensitivity, or they may increase or decrease in actual numbers. Source: PMID:11891290, GOC:dph, GOC:tb, GOC:jid
Comment
Note that the syntax of the definition of this term is different from the usual regulation syntax because it describes regulation of a trait rather than regulation of a process.
