VES008 [FBbt_20003474]

VES008

ID: FBbt_20003474

Adult descending neuron of the VES008 group, with its soma in the brain, anterior to the gall (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the WEDd1 hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has postsynapses in the ipsilateral vest, the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe, the ipsilateral inferior posterior slope, the gnathal ganglia, the ipsilateral superior posterior slope, the ipsilateral flange and the ipsilateral anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It has presynapses in the gnathal ganglia, the ipsilateral inferior posterior slope, the ipsilateral vest, the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe and the ipsilateral wedge (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).

Uncharacterized putative cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020) and updated using FlyWire (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).
