ciliary microtubule quartet

Term Information

Accession
GO:0120260
Name
ciliary microtubule quartet
Ontology
cellular_component
Synonyms
ciliary MtQ
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
A set of four specialized microtubules that originates from the basal bodies and wraps around the ciliary pocket membrane, likely supporting its distinct flask shape. Source: DOI:10.5772/66859, GOC:krc, PMID:32518185, GOC:ach, PMID:19299460
Comment
Note that cilia and eukaryotic flagella are deemed to be equivalent. In diplomonad species, such as Giardia, the axoneme may extend intracellularly up to 5um away from the plane of the plasma membrane.
