Weak inhibition within visual cortex early in life prevents experience-dependent plasticity. Loss of responsiveness to an eye deprived of vision can be initiated prematurely by enhancing γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)–mediated transmission with benzodiazepines. Here, we use a mouse “knockin” mutation to α subunits that renders individual GABA type A (G...
