In biology, a kinetid is any elementary structure that is used for motion of a eukaryotic cell. Kinetid in the wiktionary

Kinetid = locomotor organellar complex.[1]

The etymology of the term derives from the Ancient Greek word κινητικός (kinētikós), meaning "for putting in motion".[2][3]

In ciliates[edit]

kinetosomes and their fibrillar associates

Definition.[4]

  • Kinetid : elementary repeating organellar complex of the typical ciliate cortex , consisting of a kinetosome (or two more kinetosomes) and its fibrillar associates, which include cilium , unit membranes , alveoli , kinetodesma , and various ribbons, bands, or bundles of microtubules , including some nematodesmata, and sometimes also microfibrils , myonemes , parasomal sacs , and extrusomes ; synonyms are kinetosomal territory and ciliary corpuscle ==> somatic kinetids (basal bodies plus associated fibrillar structures
    • Ciliferous : literally “cilium-bearing”; used in reference to kinetosomes that regularly produce cilia.
  • Kinety (pl. Kineties ): single structurally and functionally integrated somatic file or row of kinetids , typically oriented longitudinally; may be composed of monokinetids , dikinetids or polykinetids ; ancestral condition presumed to be a bipolar kinety , with derived states as fragmented, intercalated, partial, and shortened; asymmetry of kinetids allowing recognition of anterior and posterior poles of the organism itself (see Rule of Desmodexy ); not to be used in reference to oral infraciliary structures

- Structure of somatic kineties: Somatic kineties are files of kinetosomes (Ks) linked by kinetodesmata (Kd), which appear on the left side of the kinety, if viewed from the outside.

- Numbering Conventions : (1) Kineties are numbered – following the method of Chatton and Lwoff – around the body clockwise when viewed from the apical pole, with Kinety Number 1 , for example, being the rightmost postoral meridian , which, in certain hymenostomes , also bears the cytoproct posteriorly and is normally the stomatogenic kinety ; no matter the total number, the last one, immediately to the viewer’s right of Kinety Number 1 , is conventionally labelled as “n” (Fig. 2.7a, 2.7b, 2.7e). For counting kineties, the method of von Gelei, but subsequently generally ignored, gives results exactly the opposite from those of the Chatton and Lwoff system: Number 1 is the same, but the suggested direction of counting is counter-clockwise, and thus the Number “n” meridian is on the right rather than the left side of the first kinety.

  • Kinetofragment : segment, patch or short file of basically somatic kinetids in the general vicinity of the oral region , originating from the nearby anterior terminations of the somatic kineties converging onto the general oral region; the frange and pseudomembranelle may be considered to be kinetofragments.
  • Kinetome : an organellar system composed of all kinetids (i.e., the kineties ) covering the body of a given ciliate; the total mosaic of an organism’s kinetids.
