| Term | descending neuron of the posterior brain DNp59 | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:20011332 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult descending neuron with its soma in the posterior brain, dorsal to the antler (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It is a putative embryonic-born neuron (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). In the brain, it has postsynapses in the ipsilateral inferior clamp, superior medial protocerebrum, superior posterior slope and inferior bridge, and presynapses in the gnathal ganglion, the ipsilateral cantle and the saddle (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Within the VNC, it fasciculates with the median dorsal abdominal tract and sends output to the lower tectulum (Takemura et al., 2024; Marin 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; Sturner et al., 2024).[ FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 ] | ||
| Also Known As | "DNlt008" ; "DNp59" | ||
| Comment | Type identified at light level and matched across EM datasets by Sturner et al. (2024). Pre- or post-synapse locations are those with the highest total count of these neurons in FlyWire FAFB. | ||
