General Information
|
| Term |
adult doublesex pMN3 (male) neuron |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00048406 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Doublesex-expressing neuron of the adult male found in the posterior medial protocerebrum. There is one of these cells per hemisphere, with its cell body ventral to the pC1 cluster (Kimura et al., 2015).[ FlyBase:FBrf0228365 ] |
| Also Known As |
"doublesex-expressing posterior Medial Neuron 3" ; "dsx-expressing posterior Medial Neuron 3" ; "dsx-pMN3" |
| Comment |
Robinett et al. (2010) state that pMN2 cells are not sexually dimorphic. Kimura et al. (2015) show that these neurons are sex-specific, with males having what they refer to as pMN3 neurons and females having what they refer to as pMN2 in a similar location. These are different cells, as genetic manipulations can result in both cell types being present in one fly (Kimura et al., 2015). |
