Anomalies of basal body ultrastructure induced by OFD1 depletion. Longitudinal sections of non-ciliated and ciliated basal bodies in WT cell (a) and OFD1 depleted cell (b–d). The three plates present in the pro-transition zone and the transition zone (a) are indicated by arrows. Red arrows terminal plate, blue arrows intermediate plate, black arrows axosomal plate. Undocked (b) or partially docked (c) basal bodies in OFD1 depleted showing defective distal structures. d An internal basal body prolongated by an abnormal transition zone and microtubules (black arrow)
