Extended Data Fig. 7: Distributions of MTTs with a complete C-tubule and an incomplete C-tubule in a single centriole.

The two ends of the centriole in the tomogram are taken for the relative proximal and distal ends. The coordinates of the refined MTT elements are projected onto the central symmetry axis of the centriole to calculate the relative distances (0−100%). The minimal and maximal relative distances in each statistic are indicated as edge bars, respectively. The box boundaries represent interquartile ranges (25−75%). The line in the middle of the box represents the median distance. Since most centrioles in our dataset are incomplete ones, a representative long centriole was chosen (n = 1) to calculate distributions of MTTs.
