Tm29 [FBbt_00049916]

Transmedullary neuron that receives most of its input in around 5 columns of medulla layer M6, where it also has a small number of presynapses (Nern et al., 2025). It also has a small amount of arborization in the rest of M3-M8 (Nern et al., 2025). It crosses the second optic chiasm and has mixed pre- and post-synapses in around 3 columns of lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It is glutamatergic (Davis et al., 2020). There are around 170-270 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
