muscle of Lawrence-inducing motor neuron [FBbt_00053549]

Male-specific motor neuron that targets the muscle of Lawrence (male abdominal 5 muscle) with glutamatergic type Ib boutons (Nojima et al., 2010). It has its soma in the ventral abdominal neuromere and it expresses fruitless (Nojima et al., 2010). It has extensive arborization proximally in the ipsilateral abdominal neuromere and two transmidline dendritic extensions (Nojima et al., 2010). Its activity and fruitless expression are required for the normal formation of the muscle of Lawrence during development (Nojima et al., 2010). There is one of these cells on each side (Nojima et al., 2010).
