Doublet microtubules of eukaryotic cilia and flagella are made up of a complete A- and an incomplete B-tubule that are fused together. Of the two fusion points, the outer junction is made of tripartite tubulin connections, while the inner junction contains non-tubulin elements. The latter includes flagellar-associated protein 20 (FAP20) and Parkin co-regulated gene protein (PACRG) that together link the A- and B-tubule at the inner junction.
