General Information
Term translobula plate neuron Tlp5 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00003895 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Translobula plate neuron that receives input mainly in around 30 columns of lobula plate layer 1, but also layers 2-3 (Nern et al., 2025). There are also a smaller number of presynapses in the lobula plate, particularly in layer 1 (Nern et al., 2025). In the lobula, it has pre- and post-synapses mainly in layers 4-5A, spanning around 20 columns (Nern et al., 2025). It is predicted to be glutamatergic (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2024). There are around 30 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0049410 FlyBase:FBrf0254308 FlyBase:FBrf0260545 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ]
