desmotubule

Example:Cytoplasmic filaments, like desmotubules, are fundamental to the maintenance of cellular structure and function.

Definition:A filament within the cytoplasm of a cell, a key component of the cytoskeleton, which provides structural support and enables cell movement and cell division.

Example:While similar to microtubules, desmotubules are specialized for specific roles in plant cell biology.

Definition:A type of cytoskeletal filament composed of tubulin proteins, which form part of the cell's internal framework and are involved in processes such as cell division and intracellular transport.
