An intermediate effect size variant in <i>UMOD</i> confers risk for chronic kidney disease
2021-10-02
Abstract excerpt
The kidney-specific gene UMOD encodes for uromodulin, the most abundant protein excreted in normal urine. Rare, large-effect variants in UMOD cause autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) while common, low-effect variants strongly associate with kidney function and risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the general population. It is unknown whether intermediate-effect variants in UMOD contrib...
