Johnston organ neuron activated by tonic anterior arista deflection
| Name: | Johnston organ neuron activated by tonic anterior arista deflection |
| Description: | Johnston's organ neuron tonically activated by anterior arista deflection and required for wind-induced suppression of locomotion behaviour (WISL, Yorozu et al., 2009). These neurons project to zone C of the antennal mechanosensory and motor center. |
| Synonym(s): | Johnstons organ neuron activated by tonic anterior arista deflection |

| Comment | Calcium sensor (GCaMP) studies show strong activity of AMMC zone C when antenna is displaced either by wind application to the rear of the head or by mechanical manipulation. No activation of zone E or other zones is observed (Yorozu et al., 2009). |
