| Term |
vertical system twin neuron 2 |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00048130 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Lobula plate tangential neuron that resembles vertical system neuron 3, with a dorsal extension into lobula plate layer 1 (Boergens et al., 2018; Zhao et al., 2023). It receives input in around 80 columns of lobula plate layer 4 and around 50 columns of layer 1 (Nern et al., 2025). It remains ipsilateral and its main output region is the inferior posterior slope (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). It is predicted to be cholinergic (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are four of these cells on each side (Zhao et al., 2023; Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0240805 FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] |
| Also Known As |
"vertical system-like neuron 2" ; "vertical system-like neuron 3" ; "VS twin 2" (for all, see Synonyms field below) |
| Comment |
VSlike 2/3 from Boergens et al. (2018) judged to correspond to VST2 from Zhao et al. (2023) based on LOP layer 1+4 innervation. |
