Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 180 loci that contribute to SUA levels. Here, we investigated genetic determinants of SUA level in the Korean population. We conducted a GWAS for SUA in 6,881 Korean individuals, calculated polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for common variants, and validated the association of low-frequency variants and PRS with SUA levels in 3,194 individuals. We identified two low-frequency and six common independent variants associated with SUA. Despite the overall similar effect sizes of variants in Korean and European populations, the proportion of variance for SUA levels explained by the variants was greater in the Korean population. A rare, nonsense variant SLC22A12 p.W258X showed the most significant association with reduced SUA levels, and PRSs of common variants associated with SUA levels were significant in multiple Korean cohorts. Interestingly, an East Asian-specific missense variant (rs671) in ALDH2 displayed a significant association on chromosome 12 with the SUA level. Further genetic epidemiological studies on SUA are needed in ethnically diverse cohorts to investigate rare or low-frequency variants and determine the influence of genetic and environmental factors on SUA. ? 2020, The Author(s). |
