AMMC-B2 [FBbt_00110665]

Antennal mechanosensory and motor center (AMMC) bilateral local neuron that connects AMMC zone B of both hemispheres (Kamikouchi et al., 2009; Matsuo et al., 2016. Its cell body is located at the lateral surface of the AMMC (Matsuo et al., 2016. It has predominantly dendritic arborization in the ipsilateral zone B and zone E and predominantly presynaptic terminals in the contralateral zone B. It then crosses the midline fasciculating with the inferior AMMC commissure and extends into the medial side of AMMC zone B, forming presynaptic terminals. There are approximately two of these cells per hemisphere and they are GABAergic (Tootoonian et al., 2012. It responds to both male sine and pulse song (Baker et al., 2022. (Kamikouchi et al., 2009, Tootoonian et al., 2012, Matsuo et al., 2016, Baker et al., 2022)
