| Term |
descending neuron of the gnathal ganglion DNge053 |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:20007365 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Adult descending neuron of the DNge053 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 pre- and post-synapses in the gnathal ganglion and saddle and additionally receives input in the ipsilateral and contralateral vest (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It enters the VNC via the cervical connective, then fasciculates with the dorsal median tract, sending output to multiple regions (Takemura et al., 2024; Marin 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:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0260559 ] |
| Also Known As |
"adult BDN1 neuron" ; "adult major bolt protocerebral neuron output descending neuron 1" ; "DNge053" (for all, see Synonyms field below) |
| Comment |
Cell type from Schlegel et al. (2024), based on FlyWire v783 (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024) and identified at light level by Sapkal et al. (2024). Soma location based on the closest annotated neuropil region. 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). Full name for BDN1 from codex (2025-03-04). |
