ScerGAL40987 drives expression in adult lamina monopolar neurons L4. Additional staining is observed in a small number of neurons in the adult gnathal ganglion.
Blocking neural transmission in Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons results in moderate defects in motion-evoked rotation and translation behavior in population studies in which flies are exposed to random dot motion stimuli.
Blocking neural transmission in Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons does not result in defects in turning responses to rotational visual motion.
Additionally silencing Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons does not enhance the defects in rotational visual motion response seen when Scer\GAL4c202a (L1)-expressing neurons are silenced.
Additionally silencing Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons does not enhance the defects in rotational visual motion response seen when Scer\GAL421D (L2)-expressing neurons are silenced.
Blocking neural transmission in both Scer\GAL40595 (L3) and Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons does not result in defects in turning responses to rotational visual motion.
Blocking neural transmission in both Scer\GAL4c202a (L1) and Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons does not result in defects in responses to translational motion stimuli.
Additionally silencing Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons does not enhance the defects in translational motion response seen when Scer\GAL421D (L2)-expressing neurons are silenced.
Additionally silencing Scer\GAL40987 (L4)-expressing neurons does not enhance the defects in translational motion response seen when Scer\GAL40595 (L3)-expressing neurons are silenced.
