MTe17 [FBbt_20007626]
MTe17
ID: FBbt_20007626
Adult visual projection neuron of the MTe17 group, with its soma in the brain, dorsal to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the ipsilateral medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the ipsilateral superior lateral protocerebrum, the ipsilateral superior clamp, the ipsilateral lateral horn and the ipsilateral medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 4 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).
