TREM2  
    


    
      Official symbol:  TREM2
      Full name:  triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2
      Location:  6p21.1
      Also known as:  Trem2b, Trem2c, TREM-2, Trem2a
      Entrez ID:  54209
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000095970
      Summary:  This gene encodes a membrane protein that forms a receptor signaling complex with the TYRO protein tyrosine kinase binding protein. The encoded protein functions in immune response and may be involved in chronic inflammation by triggering the production of constitutive inflammatory cytokines. Defects in this gene are a cause of polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy (PLOSL). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
