| Note: | This phenotype statement describes a gene expression or antibody labeling pattern. Anatomy terms are combined with a gene or antibody and phenotype quality. |
EXPRESSION ANATOMY:
| Name: | macula |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | maculae, sensory macula, sensory patch |
| Definition: | Portion of tissue that is a patch of thickened, pseudostratified epithelium in the inner ear, consisting of regular arrays of sensory hair cells interspersed with supporting cells. Each patch has its own characteristic shape and polarity pattern. (See Anatomical Atlas entry for sensory patches of the ear by T. Whitfield.) |

| Name: | ciliary base |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | cilial base, cilium base, flagellar base, flagellum base |
| Definition: | Area of the cilium (also called flagellum) where the basal body and the axoneme are anchored to the plasma membrane. The ciliary base encompasses the distal part of the basal body, transition fibers and transition zone and is structurally and functionally very distinct from the rest of the cilium. In this area proteins are sorted and filtered before entering the cilium, and many ciliary proteins localize specifically to this area. |
