AOTU044

ID: FBbt_20000043

Adult visual projection neuron of the AOTU044 group, with its soma in the brain, near to the lateral horn (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the VLPd&p1 posterior hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the ipsilateral lobula, the ipsilateral anterior optic tubercle and the ipsilateral posterior lateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the ipsilateral anterior optic tubercle, the ipsilateral superior intermediate protocerebrum and the ipsilateral lobula (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 8 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024).

Uncharacterized putative cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020) and updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). Soma locations are based on the closest annotated neuropil region. Pre- or post-synapse locations are the fewest regions that collectively contain at least 80 percent of all pre- or post-synapses of these neurons in FlyWire. Neurotransmitter predictions are from Eckstein et al. (2024). Other annotations are based on annotations in FlyWire and are available in the supplemental material of Schlegel et al. (2024).
