MUC1, located on chromosome 1q22, is a causative gene for autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD), which is a hereditary disease characterized by progressive tubulointerstitial nephropathy that ultimately leads to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) [11,12,13]. This evidence concerns the gene MUC1 and autosomal dominant medullary cystic kidney disease with or without hyperuricemia.
