Extended Data Fig. 3: Cell type classification.
From: Transcriptomic neuron types vary topographically in function and morphology
a, Dotplot of the highly DE genes for each tectal cluster. Clusters were grouped according to cell function. Cluster c20 cells expressed torus longitudinalis marker genes and were therefore omitted from downstream tectum analyses. b, Dotplot of the highly DE genes for each neuronal cluster. Clusters were grouped according to transmitter use. Cluster n3 highly expresses the transcription factors uncx and tal1, which are typically expressed in differentiating neurons92,93,94. c, Based on gad1b, slc17a6a (vglut2b) and slc17a6b (vglut2a) expression, we separated the inhibitory and excitatory clusters and reclustered them (see Methods).
