MeVC11
ID: FBbt_20001880
Adult visual centrifugal neuron with its soma medial to the antler (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It belongs to the DM1 posterior hemilineage (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024. Its main arborization regions in the central brain are the inferior and superior posterior slopes of both hemispheres and the gnathal ganglion (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It projects to the contralateral medulla and sends output to around 200 columns of layers M4-5, M8 and M10, additionally having some postsynapses mainly in M8 (Nern et al., 2025. Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025. There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025. (Dorkenwald et al., 2024, Eckstein et al., 2024)
Cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020, updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024 and identified at light level by Nern et al., 2025. Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire.
