— SLC2A9 SLC2A9 rs2018643
Intronic SLC2A9 variant at the major urate-transporter locus on chromosome 4; the T allele tags a haplotype associated with reduced renal urate clearance and higher serum uric acid, while the C allele is protective; the variant contributes to the multi-signal genetic architecture of the SLC2A9 locus — the single largest genetic determinant of serum urate in humans
