General Information
Term adult gamma Kenyon cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00049828 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Gamma Kenyon cell of the adult mushroom body. It develops from a larval gamma Kenyon cell that is remodeled during the pupal stage (Lee et al., 1999; Kunz et al., 2012). It expresses sNPF (Johard et al., 2008; Barnstedt et al., 2016; Croset et al., 2018). There are around 700 neurons of this type per hemisphere (Li et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0111409 FlyBase:FBrf0202832 FlyBase:FBrf0218649 FlyBase:FBrf0231313 FlyBase:FBrf0238777 FlyBase:FBrf0248215 ]
Also Known As "adult gamma KC" ; "adult gamma neuron" ; "adult mushroom body gamma neuron" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
