DNp38 [FBbt_20007548]

Adult descending neuron with its soma in the brain, posterior to the inferior bridge (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It belongs to the PSp2 lineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It has postsynapses and presynapses in the ipsilateral anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the saddle, the ipsilateral wedge and the gnathal ganglion (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (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, Eckstein et al., 2024, Dorkenwald et al., 2024)

Adult Cholinergic lineage PSp2 CM5

Adult descending neuron with its soma in the brain, posterior to the inferior bridge (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It belongs to the PSp2 lineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It has postsynapses and presynapses in the ipsilateral anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, the saddle, the ipsilateral wedge and the gnathal ganglion (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (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, Eckstein et al., 2024, Dorkenwald 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. Different MANC individuals are assigned different VNC tracts (Sturner et al., 2025).
