Additional Information
Statement
Reference

Drives expression in the ellipsoid body, and in a subset of ring neurons.

(FlyBase Curators, 2017)

Expression is limited to just a few cell types. In the brain, expression is found in the ring neurons of the ellipsoid body, specifically in the R3 and R4 morphological subtypes. In addition, expression is observed in the lower section and ureter of the Malpighian tubules.

(Yang et al., 2000)

Adult expression is observed in a subset of ring neurons of the ellipsoid body. Representative images can be seen Figure 4 of FBrf0127414.

(Zars et al., 2000)

Adult expression is observed in R3 ring neurons and in the subset of R4 neurons that arborize in the distal part of the ellipsoid body.

(Renn et al., 1999)

In adults, expressed in the Malpighian tubules; expression confined to the lower segment of Malpighian tubule and the ureter. Expression is not observed in the initial or main segements of the Malpighian tubule. Marks the lower tubule as a separate domain of the main segment.

(Sozen et al., 1997)
