microtubules

ANSWER

This answer depends on what kind of a cell being spoken of. There is a difference between the make up of eukaryotic cells versus prokaryotic cells. If you are talking about Eukaryotic cells, than simply put, it is microtubules. However, if you are talkin about bacterial flagellum, these are made from a protein called flagellin.
