Thermotransduction molecules are localized to the specialized sensory endings of AFD. A) 3D reconstruction model of the sensory endings of an AFD neuron. Cil: cilium (green); Mv: microvilli. Scale bar: 500 nm. Adapted from [21]. B) Schematic showing localization of the AFD-rGCs and cGMP-gated channels at the base of the cilium and in the microvilli, respectively. Adapted from [56].
