  2. Centriole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centriole

    3D rendering of centrioles showing the triplets. In cell biology a centriole is a cylindrical organelle composed mainly of a protein called tubulin. [1] Centrioles are found in most eukaryotic cells, but are not present in conifers (), flowering plants (angiosperms) and most fungi, and are only present in the male gametes of charophytes, bryophytes, seedless vascular plants, cycads, and Ginkgo.

  4. Centrosome cycle - Wikipedia

    However, the two centrioles are of different ages. This is because one centriole originates from the mother cell while the other is replicated from the mother centriole during the cell cycle. It is possible to distinguish between the two preexisting centrioles because the mother and daughter centriole differ in both shape and function. [5]

    The mother centriole just aids in the accumulation of materials required for the assembly of the daughter centriole. [17] Centrosome (shown by arrow) next to nucleus. Centrioles, however, are not required for the progression of mitosis. When the centrioles are irradiated by a laser, mitosis proceeds normally with a morphologically normal spindle.

  6. Organelle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organelle

    In cell biology, an organelle is a specialized subunit, usually within a cell, that has a specific function.The name organelle comes from the idea that these structures are parts of cells, as organs are to the body, hence organelle, the suffix -elle being a diminutive.

  9. Basal body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_body

    Basal bodies originate from and have a substructure similar to that of centrioles, with nine peripheral microtubule triplets (see structure at bottom center of image). A basal body (synonymous with basal granule , kinetosome , and in older cytological literature with blepharoplast ) is a protein structure found at the base of a eukaryotic ...
