Tryptophan Hydroxylase 2 or neuronal tryptophan hydroxylase or TPH2 or ADHD7 is a gene found by Goertzel et al. (2006) to be associated with the development of chronic fatigue syndrome.[1][2]

single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) - A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced "snip") is a potential genetic mutation that occurs in a single spot in the human genome; a difference in a single DNA building block. SNPs are often represented by an "rs" number, such as "rs53576".
