General Information
Term descending neuron of the posterior brain DNp05 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047638 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Descending neuron belonging to the DNp group, having a cell body on the posterior surface of the brain. This neuron crosses the midline and descends on the contralateral side of the cervical connective. It has neurites in the saddle, wedge, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, gorget, gnathal ganglion, intermediate tectulum, T1 leg neuropil, T2 leg neuropil and T3 leg neuropil. It fasciculates with the median tract of the dorsal cervical fascicle in the ventral nerve cord. There is one of these cells per hemisphere.[ FlyBase:FBrf0239335 ]
Also Known As "DNp05"
Comment Namiki et al. (2018), identify this as being morphologically similar to the contralateral giant mimetic descending neuron, described by Milde and Strausfeld (1990) (FBrf0239829), VGlut-F-500311, described by FlyCircuit (FBrf0212704) and the antennal mechanosensory and motor center Db2 neuron (FBbt:00111494), described by Matsuo et al. (2016) (FBrf0230862).
