AOTU008

ID: FBbt_20000007

Adult brain-intrinsic neuron of the AOTU008 group, with its soma in the brain, near to the anterior optic tubercle (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the AOTUv3 dorsal hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the ipsilateral anterior optic tubercle (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the ipsilateral superior intermediate protocerebrum, the contralateral superior intermediate protocerebrum, the ipsilateral superior medial protocerebrum, the contralateral superior medial protocerebrum, the ipsilateral inferior bridge and the contralateral inferior bridge (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 22 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024).

Uncharacterized putative cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020) and updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). Soma locations are based on the closest annotated neuropil region. Pre- or post-synapse locations are the fewest regions that collectively contain at least 80 percent of all pre- or post-synapses of these neurons in FlyWire. Neurotransmitter predictions are from Eckstein et al. (2024). Other annotations are based on annotations in FlyWire and are available in the supplemental material of Schlegel et al. (2024).
