neuroblast NB4-4 [FBbt_00001415]

Neuroblast that delaminates at S4 and generates a motorneuron and several interneurons during the embryonic stage (Schmid et al., 1999. In the embryo, one of these cells can be found in each hemisegment from S1-A9 (Birkholz et al., 2013; Urbach et al., 2016. In the larva, it resumes proliferation in all thoracic segments (Lacin and Truman, 2016. The neurons that develop from this neuroblast after larval hatching form postembryonic lineage 24, composed exclusively of motorneurons. (Birkholz et al., 2015, Birkholz et al., 2013, Urbach et al., 2016, Lacin and Truman, 2016, Schmid et al., 1999)
