TBC1D3

Overview

TBC1D3 encodes a RAB GTPase-activating protein (GAP) family member. It was identified through whole-exome sequencing of pancreatic cystic neoplasms as a recurrently altered gene in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs), contributing to the somatic mutational landscape of these precursor lesions.

Alterations observed in the corpus
