| Term | descending neuron of the posterior brain DNp60 | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:20011354 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult descending neuron with its soma in the posterior brain, near to the mushroom body calyx (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the SMPpv2 lineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). In the brain, it has postsynapses in the ipsilateral inferior clamp, superior intermediate protocerebrum and gorget, and presynapses in the gnathal ganglion (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Within the VNC, it fasciculates with the dorsal lateral tract of ventral cervical fasciculus and sends 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; Sturner et al., 2024).[ FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 ] | ||
| Also Known As | "DNp60" ; "DNxn088" | ||
| 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. | ||
