MTe10 [FBbt_20007619]

Adult visual projection neuron of the MTe10 group, with its soma in the brain, anterior to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the VPNl&d1 lateral hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the ipsilateral medulla and the contralateral superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the contralateral superior posterior slope, the contralateral inferior posterior slope and the ipsilateral superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 8 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024).

Adult Glutamatergic Visual system lineage VPNl&d1 BLAl2

Adult visual projection neuron of the MTe10 group, with its soma in the brain, anterior to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the VPNl&d1 lateral hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the ipsilateral medulla and the contralateral superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the contralateral superior posterior slope, the contralateral inferior posterior slope and the ipsilateral superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (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 from Schlegel et al. (2024), based on FlyWire v783 (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).
