General Information
Term adult saddle neuron 072 ID (Ontology) FBbt:20002281 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult brain-intrinsic neuron of the SAD072 group, with its soma in the brain, ventral to the antennal mechanosensory and motor center (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 saddle, the gnathal ganglia, the ipsilateral antennal mechanosensory and motor center, the ipsilateral anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the ipsilateral gorget, the ipsilateral wedge, the contralateral gorget, the contralateral posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum and the ipsilateral superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the ipsilateral gorget, the contralateral gorget, the ipsilateral anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the ipsilateral posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the ipsilateral superior posterior slope, the ipsilateral inferior clamp, the ipsilateral posterior lateral protocerebrum, the contralateral posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the ipsilateral epaulette and the contralateral superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is gaba (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 "SAD072"
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).
