General Information
Term adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron MeVC5 ID (Ontology) FBbt:20007669 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron of the MeVC5 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the DM1 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, and the gnathal ganglion and inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer and medulla layer M10 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ]
Comment Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Hemilineage information from neuprint, though original source not clear. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
