SLC2A9 and gout: Furthermore, some association analyses have also shown associations between gout and urate transporter genes URAT1 [25–27], NPT1 [27–29], OAT4/SLC22A11 [30] and OAT10/SLC22A13 [31], and scaffold protein genes PDZK1 [32] and LRRC16A [33], which bind to various transporters and form transportosomes with them.
