General Information
Term adult lobula visual projection neuron LoVP56 ID (Ontology) FBbt:20000986 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult visual projection neuron with its soma posterior to the posterior lateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It receives input in layers 5B and 6 of the ipsilateral lobula, in around 50 columns (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output mainly to the inferior clamp, remaining ipsilateral (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0246888 FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ]
Also Known As "adult clamp neuron 281" ; "CL281" ; "LoVP56" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
Comment Cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020), updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024), matched across EM datasets and identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire.
