LT43

ID: FBbt_20011449

Adult lobula tangential neuron of the LT43 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the VLPp&l1 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral anterior optic tubercle, lobula layer 6, posterior lateral protocerebrum, inferior clamp, superior posterior slope and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral anterior optic tubercle, lobula layer 6, posterior lateral protocerebrum and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is GABA (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 2 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets and at light level (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Hemilineage information from neuprint, though original source not clear. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
