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.

How this was derived

Indexed from **pmc** on 2026-11-13 (relevance 1.00, tier peer_reviewed).

Generated 2026-11-13, last changed yesterday. Dedup key newdoc:389. The engine re-checks this insight on every analysis run; if more sources agree, its corroboration and confidence go up and it reappears as “new”.

Evidence (1 quote)

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 ).
