Very recently, we have reported further GWAS of clinically-ascertained gout and identified 10 gout loci including HIST1H2BF-HIST1H4E, solute carrier family 17 member 1 (SLC17A1), solute carrier family 22 member 12 (SLC22A12), NIPA like domain containing 1 (NIPAL1) and family with sequence similarity 35 member A (FAM35A) [19]. This evidence concerns the gene NIPAL1 and gout.
