MeVPMe3

ID: FBbt_20007606

Adult medulla-contralateral medulla neuron of the MeVPMe3 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M3, medulla layer M4, medulla layer M5, medulla layer M6 and medulla serpentine layer, the contralateral medulla serpentine layer and posterior lateral protocerebrum, and the inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M6 and posterior lateral protocerebrum, the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, posterior lateral protocerebrum and superior posterior slope, and the inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (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.
