C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Gout compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2021, PMID:33832965)
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Gout. (GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2021, PMID:33832965)
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Gout — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2021, PMID:33832965)

Questions about rs28548845
What is rs28548845?
rs28548845 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MLXIP gene. Published research associates it with gout. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs28548845 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Gout. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs28548845 mean I will get this?
No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.
Where does the information about rs28548845 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2021, PMID:33832965. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
