| LocusID (NCBI) | 64699 |
| Atlas_Id | 42593 |
| Location | 21q22.3 [Link to chromosome band 21q22] |
| Location_base_pair | Starts at 42381876 and ends at 42396091 bp from pter ( according to hg19-Feb_2009) [Mapping TMPRSS3.png] |
| Fusion genes (updated 2017) | Data from Atlas, Mitelman, Cosmic Fusion, Fusion Cancer, TCGA fusion databases with official HUGO symbols (see references in chromosomal bands) |
| TMPRSS3 (21q22.3) / MYO5B (18q21.1) |
| Note | Not to be confused with TMPRSS4 (11q23.3), which was originally named TMPRSS3 |
| DNA/RNA |
| Description | 13 exons spanning 24 kb |
| Transcription | Four alternative splice isoforms have been described, producing transcripts of 1.3 kb, 2.1 kb, 2.4 kb and 2.5 kb, respectively |
| Protein |
| Description | Isoform A (full length) is 454 amino acids; isoforms B and C lack 127 aa at the N-terminus due to alternative splicing; isoform D is 344 aa and has a unique C-terminus due to alternative splicing. The full length isoform comprises an LDL-receptor A domain, a Scavenger receptor (Srcr) domain and a peptidase S1 S6 domain, |
| Expression | Expressed in many fetal and adult tissues |
| Localisation | Transmembrane |
| Function | Transmembrane serine protease; exact function unknown |
| Mutations |
| Germinal | Insertion, frameshift and missense mutations in the TMPRSS3 gene have been described in familial congenital (DFNB10) and childhood onset (DFNB8) deafness. |
| Implicated in |
| Note | |
| Entity | Autosomal recessive neurosensory deafness; childhood-onset deafness (DFNB8); Autosomal recessive neurosensory deafness; congenital deafness (DFNB10) |
| Entity | Ovarian Cancer |
| Disease | Variant D of TMPRSS3 has been reported to be overexpressed in ovarian carcinomas and has been proposed as a novel diagnostic marker. |
| Prognosis | High expression of variant D is correlated with advanced clinical stages of the disease. |
| Entity | Pancreatic Cancer |
| Disease | TMPRSS3 has been reported to be overexpressed in pancreatic cancer. No information on splice variants or prognostic value is available. |
