General Information
Term dopaminergic PAM neuron 3 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00100231 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition A dopaminergic neuron of the PAM cluster whose axonal fibers arborize in the posterior and surface layers of beta lobe slice 2 (Tanaka et al., 2008; Aso et al., 2014) and, more sparsely, in the anterior layer of beta' lobe slice 2 (Aso et al., 2010; Aso et al., 2014). Before entering the beta lobe, fibers branch off to project to the opposite hemisphere (Tanaka et al., 2008). Its dendrites are found in the superior medial protocerebrum, the crepine and, to a lesser extent, the superior intermediate protocerebrum (Aso et al., 2014). There are around 4 neurons of this type in each hemisphere (Tanaka et al., 2008; Aso et al., 2014; Li et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0205263 FlyBase:FBrf0211625 FlyBase:FBrf0227179 FlyBase:FBrf0248215 ]
Also Known As "MB-M3" ; "mushroom body medial lobe arborizing neuron 3" ; "PAM-03" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
