Uric Acid Concentration, Serum, Quantitative Trait Locus 1; Uaqtl1

Description

Gout is a common disorder resulting from tissue deposition of monosodium urate crystals as a consequence of hyperuricemia. Patients with gout experience very painful attacks caused by precipitation of urate in joints, which triggers subsequent inflammation. Elevated serum uric acid concentration is a key risk factor for gout (summary from Matsuo et al., 2009 and Woodward et al., 2011). Genetic Heterogeneity of Serum Uric Acid Concentration Quantitative Trait LociSee also UAQTL2 (see {612076}), conferred by variation in the SLC2A9 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 4p; UAQTL4 (OMIM ), conferred by variation in the SLC17A3 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 6p21; UAQTL5 (OMIM ), associated with a SNP on chromosome 19q13; and UAQTL6 (OMIM ), associated with a SNP on chromosome 1.
