Genes affected
TREM2 (HGNC:17761): (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2) 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]

Polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 18, 2024The TREM2 gene has multiple clinically relevant transcripts. This variant occurs in alternate transcript NM_001271821.1, and corresponds to NM_018965.3:c.*148C>T in the primary transcript. This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 216 of the TREM2 protein (p.Ala216Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs761884997, gnomAD 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TREM2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 907355). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
