MNhl88 [FBbt_20011211]

Adult motor neuron of the MNhl88 group (Takemura et al., 2024; Marin et al., 2024). It is a secondary neuron (Takemura et al., 2024; Marin et al., 2024). It exits the VNC via the metathoracic leg nerve (Takemura et al., 2024; Marin et al., 2024). It receives input in the haltere neuropil and sends output to the metathoracic leg (Takemura et al., 2024; Marin et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 2 of these cells per organism and their somas are found in the metathoracic neuromere (Takemura et al., 2024; Marin et al., 2024).
