DNge040 [FBbt_20007352]

Adult descending neuron of the DNge040 group, with its soma in the brain, ventral to the antennal mechanosensory and motor center (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the MD3 hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the gnathal ganglia and the ipsilateral vest (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the gnathal ganglia (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 2 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024).

Adult Glutamatergic Nervous system

Adult descending neuron of the DNge040 group, with its soma in the brain, ventral to the antennal mechanosensory and motor center (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the MD3 hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the gnathal ganglia and the ipsilateral vest (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the gnathal ganglia (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 2 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024).

Uncharacterized putative cell type from Schlegel et al. (2024), based on FlyWire v783 (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).
