ID: FBbt_20007486
Adult descending neuron with its soma in the gnathal ganglion, ventral to the prow (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. In the brain, it has postsynapses in the gnathal ganglion and the ipsilateral inferior posterior slope, and presynapses in the gnathal ganglion (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. In the VNC, it follows the median tract of dorsal cervical fasciculus I (Sturner et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024. There are approximately 2 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Sturner et al., 2025). (Stürner et al., 2025, Dorkenwald et al., 2024, Eckstein et al., 2024)
Type identified at light level and matched across EM datasets by Sturner et al. (2025). 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.
