cilium assembly

Term ID

GO:0060271

Synonyms

ciliogenesis
cilium biogenesis
cilium formation
cilium morphogenesis
cilium organization
microtubule-based flagellum assembly

Definition

The assembly of a cilium, a specialized eukaryotic organelle that consists of a filiform extrusion of the cell surface. Each cilium is bounded by an extrusion of the cytoplasmic membrane, and contains a regular longitudinal array of microtubules, anchored basally in a centriole. (3)
