This is a resource to help you, a loved one, or a family member navigate and make sense of the hearing loss related to the Transmembrane Serine Protease 3 / TMPRSS3 gene, in an easy-to-understand way. It was put together by a Girl Scout with advice from some of the greatest scientists in world.
-
To learn more about the gene, hereditary hearing loss, pathogenic variants in TMPRSS3 at DFNB8/10 locus, and cochlear implants go to TMPRSS3 Overview.
-
To read nearly 100 studies on TMPRSS3 and review a variety of research trends, go to Existing Research.
