OLVC6

ID: FBbt_20007291

Adult visual centrifugal neuron of the OLVC6 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the DM6 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral superior posterior slope, the contralateral lobula layer 4, lobula plate layer 1, lobula plate layer 2, superior posterior slope and lobula layer 5A, and the inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the contralateral lobula layer 4, lobula plate layer 1, lobula plate layer 2, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Hemilineage information from neuprint, though original source not clear. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
