The primary neurite extends dorsally to arborize broadly in the anterior antennal mechanosensory and motor center (AMMC) zones C and E and ventral subesophageal zone (SEZ) (Hampel et al., 2015). In the latter, the projections are more ventral than the ones of antennal grooming descending neuron 1 (Hampel et al., 2015). One neurite projects ventrally to exit the brain via the cervical connective and arborizes in the prothoracic neuromere (Hampel et al., 2015). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Shiu et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024). DNge078 Mapped to DNge078 in Shiu et al. (2024) supplement.
