General Information
Term cilium organization ID (Ontology) GO:0044782 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly 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.
Also Known As"microtubule-based flagellum organization"
