General Information
Term	adult posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum neuron 062	ID (Ontology)	FBbt:20002120 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition	Adult brain-intrinsic neuron of the PVLP062 group, with its soma in the brain, anterior to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It is a putative embryonic-born neuron (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the ipsilateral anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the ipsilateral inferior clamp, the ipsilateral posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum and the ipsilateral gorget (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the ipsilateral gorget, the ipsilateral anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the contralateral gorget, the ipsilateral posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the ipsilateral inferior clamp, the contralateral inferior bridge and the ipsilateral inferior bridge (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 2 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024).[ FlyBase:FBrf0246888 FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 ]
Also Known As	"PVLP062"
Comment	Uncharacterized putative cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020) and updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). Soma locations are based on the closest annotated neuropil region. Pre- or post-synapse locations are the fewest regions that collectively contain at least 80 percent of all pre- or post-synapses of these neurons in FlyWire. Neurotransmitter predictions are from Eckstein et al. (2024). Other annotations are based on annotations in FlyWire and are available in the supplemental material of Schlegel et al. (2024).
