transmedullary neuron Tm5a [FBbt_00110072]
Subtype of the transmedullary neuron Tm5. It extends a single primary neurite along the photoreceptor axon and arborizes into many fine processes in the M3, M6 and M8 layers. Arbors are only found in columns that contain the photoreceptor axons of yellow ommatidia. Its axon makes a sharp turn and branches out in lobula layers 4 to 6. It provides input to the lobula intrinsic neuron Li4 via many synapses, and also to the lobula tangential neuron Lt11 (Lin et al., 2016). It is very similar to the subtype Tm5b, differing from it by the size, shape of its arborization and the type of photoreceptor columns it arborizes in. It is a cholinergic neuron (Karuppudurai et al., 2014). Connectivity inferred from EM reconstructions from a single medulla column. The cell reconstructed resembled Tm5a (Gao et al., 2008). The neurotransmitter was assessed by immunohistochemistry (Karuppudurai et al., 2014). Connectivity in the lobula was assessed by GRASP and double-labeling EM (Lin et al., 2016).
