Axoneme Structure

Axoneme Structure is a structural biological construct that specifies the highly conserved, microtubule-based cytoskeletal architecture of cilia and flagella, distinguished by its characteristic 9+2 arrangement of radially spaced outer doublet microtubules surrounding a central pair of singlet microtubules, and its role in enabling coordinated motility through dynein-driven sliding.
