The Tre-2/Bub2/Cdc16 (TBC) domain is a conserved protein motif consisting of approximately 200 amino acids, and is present in many eukaryotic proteins. TBC domain-containing proteins (TBC proteins) function as GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) for the small GTPase Rab, which can promote the hydrolysis of Rab-GTP to Rab-GDP in regulation of specific intracellular trafficking pathways. Several TBC proteins play important roles in cellular functions in mammals, and defects of which are closely associated with numerous disease processes. In this review, we summarize the structures and functions of the mammalian TBC proteins and recent advances in understanding their critical roles in the development of human diseases. This review serves as a reference for further investigations on the functions of TBC proteins in disease pathogeneses.
