General Information
|
| Term |
adult medulla visual projection neuron MeVP62 |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:20011488 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Adult medulla visual projection neuron of the MeVP62 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8 and lobula layer 6 (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla serpentine layer, anterior optic tubercle and lobula layer 6 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 3 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] |
| Also Known As |
"MeVP62" |
| 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. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements. |
