General Information
|
| Term |
adult medulla visual projection neuron MeVPLp2 |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:20007601 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Adult neuron with its soma lateral to the anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It receives most of its input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M10, from around 100 columns, and a smaller amount in M8 (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the contralateral lobula plate, mainly in layers 2 and 3, in around 40 columns (Nern et al., 2025). It does not have arbors in the central brain (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] |
| Also Known As |
"adult MeLp2 neuron" ; "LPT55" ; "MeLp2" (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), identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire. |
