Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 259236
Gene name Transmembrane inner ear
Gene symbol TMIE
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
DFNB6
Chromosome 3
Chromosome location 3p21.31
Summary This gene encodes a transmembrane inner ear protein. Studies in mouse suggest that this gene is required for normal postnatal maturation of sensory hair cells in the cochlea, including correct development of stereocilia bundles. This gene is one of multip
SNPs SNP information provided by dbSNP.
