General Information
Term	adult pheromone-sensing neuron of leg	ID (Ontology)	FBbt:00052294 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition	Gustatory neuron of the leg that detects pheromones (Thistle et al., 2012). It expresses ppk23, which is necessary, but not sufficient, for pheromone detection (Thistle et al., 2012). In each bristle where these cells are found, generally one cell will respond to male pheromones and a second will respond to female pheromones (Thistle et al., 2012; Kallman et al., 2015).[ FlyBase:FBrf0218411 FlyBase:FBrf0218960 FlyBase:FBrf0230436 ]
Also Known As	"leg ppk23 neuron"
Comment	Distinct from the Gr68a and Gr32a cells (Thistle et al., 2012; Toda et al., 2012).
