Entrez Gene summary for UMOD:

This gene encodes uromodulin, the most abundant protein in normal urine. Its excretion in urine follows proteolytic

cleavage of the ectodomain of its glycosyl phosphatidylinosital-anchored counterpart that is situated on the luminal

cell surface of the loop of Henle. Uromodulin may act as a constitutive inhibitor of calcium crystallization in renal

fluids. Excretion of uromodulin in urine may provide defense against urinary tract infections caused by uropathogenic

bacteria. Defects in this gene are associated with the autosomal dominant renal disorders medullary cystic kidney

disease-2 (MCKD2) and familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (FJHN). These disorders are characterized by

juvenile onset of hyperuricemia, gout, and progressive renal failure. While several transcript variants may exist for

this gene, the full-length natures of only two have been described to date. These two represent the major variants of

this gene and encode the same isoform. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: UROM_HUMAN, P07911

Function: Uromodulin: Functions in biogenesis and organization of the apical membrane of epithelial cells of the thick

ascending limb of Henle's loop (TALH), where it promotes formation of complex filamentous gel-like structure providing

the water barrier permeability. May serve as a receptor for binding and endocytosis for cytokines (IL-1, IL-2) and

TNF. Facilitates neutrophil migration across renal epithelial

Function: Uromodulin, secreted form: Secreted into urine after proteolytically cleaveage. Into the urine, may

contribute to colloid osmotic pressure, retards passage of positively charged electrolytes, prevents urinary tract

infection and modulates formation of supersaturated salts and their crystals

Defects in UMOD are the cause of familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy type 1 (HNFJ1) [MIM:162000].

HNFJ1 is a renal disease characterized by juvenil onset of hyperuricemia, polyuria, progressive renal failure, and

gout. The disease is associated with interstitial pathological changes resulting in fibrosis

Defects in UMOD are the cause of medullary cystic kidney disease type 2 (MCKD2) [MIM:603860]. MCKD2 is a form

of tubulointerstitial nephropathy characterized by formation of renal cysts at the corticomedullary junction. It is

characterized by adult onset of impaired renal function and salt wasting resulting in end-stage renal failure by the

sixth decade

Defects in UMOD are the cause of glomerulocystic kidney disease with hyperuricemia and isosthenuria (GCKDHI)

[MIM:609886]. GCKDHI is a renal disorder characterized by a cystic dilation of Bowman space, a collapse of glomerular

tuft, and hyperuricemia due to low fractional excretion of uric acid and severe impairment of urine concentrating

ability
