General Information

Term

microtubule-based transport

ID (Ontology)

GO:0099111 (Gene Ontology)

Definition

A microtubule-based process that results in the transport of organelles, other microtubules, or other cellular components. Examples include motor-driven movement along microtubules and movement driven by polymerization or depolymerization of microtubules.[ ISBN:0815316194 ]
