descending neuron of the posterior brain DNp22 |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00047655 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Descending neuron belonging to the DNp group, having a cell body on the posterior surface of the brain (Namiki et al., 2018). It has dendritic arbors in the inferior and superior posterior slope that form a characteristic Y shape (Suver et al., 2016; Namiki et al., 2018). It receives a large amount of input from ocellar ganglion interneurons (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). In the VNC, it fasciculates with the median tract of the dorsal cervical fascicle and has outputs in the neck, wing and haltere neuropils (Suver et al., 2016; Namiki et al., 2018). There is one of these cells per hemisphere and it remains ipsilateral (Namiki et al., 2018).[ FlyBase:FBrf0234044 FlyBase:FBrf0239335 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 ] |
