Synonyms: | flagellar pro-basal body, flagellar probasal body, pro-basal body, pro-centriole, probasal body |
Definition: | The cilary pro-basal body is an immature, partially assembled form of a ciliary basal body found next to the basal body of a cilium. Pro-basal bodies are not capable of nucleating a cilium. As the cell progresses through the cell cycle, continuing assembly will convert the pro-basal body into a mature basal body that is capable of nucleating a cilium. |
