Definition:A set of four specialized microtubules that originates from the basal bodies and wraps around the ciliary pocket membrane, likely supporting its distinct flask shape.
Comment:Note that cilia and eukaryotic flagella are deemed to be equivalent. In diplomonad species, such as Giardia, the axoneme may extend intracellularly up to 5um away from the plane of the plasma membrane.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: ciliary MtQ
 only_in_taxon: NCBITaxon:5653 ! Kinetoplastida
