Add new MIME type in TMG 2010

I need to publish an application that requires HTTP Compression using TMG 2010. The application is a web service that communicate through JSON queries and responses.
Compression is defined by content type, and content types is based on MIME types. Ideally I would like to enable compression for application/json MIME type, but that is not in the list in my TMG server.
Is there a way to add own MIME types in TMG?

Thanks Marc, that is the description how to add new content types.
However, I want to add more MIME types to use in my new content type. The application/json is not in the list.

It is actually pretty easy.
Instead of selecting a MIME type from the dropdown list, just type application/json in the text box and click add.

You are so very correct... This was rather embarrassing... :)
To by defence, I was not at the keyboard at the moment. I was flying behind in a teamviewer session.
Thank you!
