Term | ciliary transition zone | ID (Ontology) | GO:0035869 (Gene Ontology) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Definition | A region of the cilium between the basal body and proximal segment that is characterized by Y-shaped assemblages that connect axonemal microtubules to the ciliary membrane. The ciliary transition zone appears to function as a gate that controls ciliary membrane composition and separates the cytosol from the ciliary plasm.[ PubMed:21422230 ] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
