| Name | TBC1 domain family, member 3C |
| Description | This gene represents one of a cluster of related genes found on chromosome 17. The proteins encoded by this gene family contain a TBC (Tre-2, Bub2p, and Cdc16p) domain and may be involved in GTPase signaling and vesicle trafficking. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014] |
| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nTBC1D3C functions as a novel regulator of cytoskeletal dynamics by decoupling actin filament assembly from microtubule disassembly. Specifically, TBC1D3C directly binds to the microtubule-associated guanine nucleotide exchange factor GEF-H1, disrupting its interaction with the Tctex-DIC-14-3-3 complex. This displacement liberates GEF-H1 from microtubules into the cytosol, where it activates RhoA, thereby promoting localized actin filament assembly while preserving the overall integrity of microtubule arrays. Super‐resolution microscopy and live‐cell imaging have confirmed that TBC1D3C’s action induces actin assembly independently of microtubule depolymerization, positioning it as a direct activator of GEF-H1 and a key player in the decoupling of cytoskeletal processes."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Yi Luan, Zhifeng Deng, Yutong Zhu, et al.
