Independent expansion, selection, and hypervariability of the TBC1D3 gene family in humans
TBC1D3 is a primate-specific gene family that has expanded in the human lineage and has been implicated in neuronal progenitor proliferation and expansion of the frontal cortex.

Instead, we propose that the human-specific modified C terminus plays a critical role in these adaptive functions by potentially directing novel post-translational modifications or altering the localization and trafficking of TBC1D3 proteins ( Sharma and Schiller 2019 ).
