Term Information

Accession
GO:0060285
Name
cilium-dependent cell motility
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
cilium cell motility, microtubule-based flagellar cell motility, ciliary cell motility
Alternate IDs
GO:0071974
Definition
Cell motility due to the motion of one or more eukaryotic cilia. A eukaryotic cilium is a specialized organelle that consists of a filiform extrusion of the cell surface. Each cilium is bounded by an extrusion of the cytoplasmic (plasma) membrane, and contains a regular longitudinal array of microtubules, anchored basally in a centriole.

Comment
Note that we deem eukaryotic cilia and microtubule-based flagella to be equivalent.
