MeVP45

ID: FBbt_20007646

Adult medulla visual projection neuron of the MeVP45 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, superior lateral protocerebrum, posterior lateral protocerebrum and superior clamp (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, superior lateral protocerebrum, posterior lateral protocerebrum and superior clamp (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).

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (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. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
