microtubule endGene ontology ID
GO:1990752
Definition
Any end of a microtubule. Microtubule ends differ in that the so-called microtubule plus-end is the one that preferentially grows by polymerization, with respect to the minus-end
Comment
This term should be used when it is not possible to distinguish between the two microtubule ends, e.g. during image annotation. Whenever possible, please annotate to one of the more specific children GO:0035371 'microtubule plus-end' or GO:0036449 'microtubule minus-end'.
