Talk:TREM2

New risk SNP

Buried in deadlines -- I really want to go through the help pages here so I can learn how to contribute more independently, such as by using the carefully created forms, learning the criteria for a degree of "badness", etc., but for now I'll just note that the recent NEJM article --

http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1211103?query=featured_home

-- indicates that it is a "rare missense mutation (rs75932628-T)" that is strongly correlated with AD and non-AD dementia. Perhaps someone who's been around here longer can add that info to this page.

Welcome! Check out the rs75932628 page for the specific information about this SNP, and then consider what information makes the most sense to add about the gene on it's own (TREM2) page. --- lennon
