ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00049530 (Fly Anatomy) |
Definition |
Adult taste projection neuron with axonal projections in the subesophageal zone and lateral protocerebrum (Kim et al., 2017). There are two of these cells per hemisphere, one has its cell body on the dorsal surface of the metathoracic neuromere with contralateral ventral nerve cord dendrites and the other has its cell body in the abdominal ganglion with bilateral ventral nerve cord dendrites (Kim et al., 2017). It receives input from sugar-sensing (Gr5a-expressing) neurons in the leg neuropil, it is activated in response to sweet stimulation of the legs and it promotes proboscis extension (Kim et al., 2017). It fasciculates with the lateral antennal lobe tract and terminates in the superior lateral protocerebrum, with terminals in and around the lateral horn (Kim et al., 2017).[ FlyBase:FBrf0234857 ] |
