adult doublesex pC1e (female) neuron

ID: FBbt_00049926

Adult doublesex pC1 neuron of the female that, similar to pC1a and pC1d, has a contralateral projection that extends further laterally than that of pC1b and pC1c and lacks a characteristic branch into the dorsal ipsilateral superior lateral protocerebrum (Wang et al., 2020). Its contralateral branch crosses the midline at the level of the superior medial protocerebrum (Wang et al., 2020). Unlike pC1a it projects ventromedially towards the esophageal foramen, but has less extensive arborization and does not extend as far ventrally as pC1d (Wang et al., 2020). There is one of these cells per hemisphere and it is cholinergic (Schretter et al., 2020).

Might also express fru (Schretter et al., 2020).
